People divided after plans to rename major venue after Melania Trump are announced

The venue in question is not just any building, but a landmark in Washington, D.C., already named in honor of a prominent figure who passed away and serves as a memorial. That fact alone adds a layer of controversy to the proposed change.

The iconic space first opened in September 1971 and has since hosted a wide range of global talent in music, dance, theater, and other performing arts.

That venue is the Kennedy Center Opera House.

On Tuesday, July 22, House Republicans introduced a proposal to rename the venue in recognition of Melania Trump’s “support and dedication to the arts and humanities.”

The plan involves amending an existing legislative bill.
