目前被称为特朗普肯尼迪表演艺术中心的机构的律师已指示工作人员立即开始将该场馆名称改回原名。
这份由该中心总法律顾问周四发出、并被哥伦比亚广播公司新闻获得的备忘录中载明的指令，是这家国家艺术中心首次官方表态，将遵守联邦法院命令移除特朗普总统的姓名，并重新考虑关闭场馆进行为期两年翻修的计划。
美国地区法官克里斯托弗·库珀上周作出裁决，支持俄亥俄州民主党众议员乔伊斯·比蒂的诉讼请求。比蒂是肯尼迪中心董事会成员，她提起诉讼，质疑该机构的更名行为，以及计划从今年夏天开始关闭场馆两年进行大规模维修的安排。
库珀认定董事会越权，并下令将总统姓名从“该机构的官方名称、中心立面及其他实体或数字标牌、官方材料中移除”。
周四发给工作人员的备忘录称，员工“必须立即更改电子邮件签名、信头及其他文件，将名称改为‘约翰·F·肯尼迪表演艺术中心’，或简称‘肯尼迪中心’”。
根据备忘录内容，室内外标牌以及所有带有现任名称的家具，必须在下周五前完成更换。
肯尼迪中心未立即回应置评请求。
备忘录还提到，中心管理层仍在“考虑备选方案，并将很快提供进一步指导”，内容涉及该中心是否会在7月5日后继续开放——届时这项耗资2.57亿美元的大规模翻修工程即将启动。
库珀在裁决中表示，该艺术中心的翻修“确实迫在眉睫”，但他写道，其初步禁令并未“绝对禁止”董事会关闭肯尼迪中心，“如果该机构在以审慎方式独立权衡其对中心的多项义务后重新作出此项决定的话”。
“通过本判决，法院无意规定该中心应如何运营，也未就该机构未来的任何具体计划——包括施工、关闭或其他安排——提出任何要求，”他写道，“法院只是要求肯尼迪中心董事会遵守法律规定的某些最低要求。除此之外，法院将交由各方自行处理。”
在第二任期最初几周，特朗普先生将该中心董事会的多名成员替换为其政府高级官员和亲密盟友，这些人随后选举他担任董事会主席。
去年12月，肯尼迪中心董事会投票决定将该表演艺术机构的名称更改为“唐纳德·J·特朗普与约翰·F·肯尼迪纪念表演艺术中心”。数小时内，肯尼迪中心官网更新为“特朗普肯尼迪中心”，工作人员也开始在建筑立面上添加特朗普先生的姓名。但议员和法律学者表示，此类更名需要国会批准。
多名原定在该场馆演出的艺术家取消了表演，在肯尼迪中心演出的美国国家交响乐团执行董事也离职赴任新职。

Lawyers for what is currently called the Trump Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts are instructing staff to immediately begin switching the name of the facility back to its original title.
The instructions, laid out in a memo sent Thursday by the center’s general counsel and obtained by CBS News, are the first official signal the national arts hub is complying with a federal court order to drop President Trump’s name and reconsider plans to close for two years of renovations.
U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper last week ruled in favor of Democratic Rep. Joyce Beatty of Ohio, a member of the Kennedy Center’s Board of Trustees, who filed a lawsuit challenging the institution’s name change and plans to close for two years for extensive repairs beginning this summer.
Cooper found the board had overstepped its authority and ordered the president’s name to be removed from “the institution’s title, as represented on the façade of the Center, any other physical or digital signage, and official materials.”
The memo to staff Thursday said staff “must immediately change email signatures, letterhead, and other documents to reflect the name as ‘The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts,’ or ‘Kennedy Center.”‘
Changes to interior and exterior signage and any furniture carrying the current name must be switched back by next Friday, according to the memo.
The Kennedy Center didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
The memo also says center officials still are “considering their options and will provide further guidance shortly” on whether the center will remain open after July 5, when extensive renovations costing $257 million are set to begin.
In his order, Cooper agreed renovations to the arts center are “sorely needed,” but he wrote his preliminary injunction does not “categorically” bar the board from closing the Kennedy Center, “should it come to this decision anew after independently balancing its multiple obligations to the Center in a prudent fashion.”
“By way of this opinion, the Court does not purport to dictate how the Center should be run, nor does it prescribe any particular plan for the institution — construction, closure, or otherwise — moving forward,” he wrote. “It simply holds the Kennedy Center Board to certain minimum requirements imposed by law. Beyond that, the Court will let the parties play on.”
In the early weeks of his second term, Mr. Trump replaced several members of the center’s Board of Trustees with senior members of his administration and close allies, who then elected him as chair.
In December, the Kennedy Center’s board voted to change the performing arts institution’s name to The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts. Within hours, the Kennedy Center’s website was updated to read “The Trump Kennedy Center” and crews went to work adding Mr. Trump’s name to the building’s facade. But lawmakers and legal scholars said such a change required congressional action.
Several artists who were set to perform at the institution canceled performances and the executive director of the National Symphony Orchestra, which performs at the Kennedy Center, left for a new job.
