Washington National Opera leaves Kennedy Center for new home

Season 2026 Episode 68 | 7m 42s

Earlier this month, the Kennedy Center board approved the president’s plan to close the center for two years. The Washington National Opera had already announced it was leaving, one of the most consequential developments in a year of turmoil. Jeffrey Brown reports for our Art in Action series, exploring the intersection of art and democracy, part of our CANVAS coverage.
