Dec. 19 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump's name was affixed Friday to The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., with one Kennedy family member threatening to chisel the change out.

Signage now reads: Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts." Workers added Trump's name before one honoring the former president.

The change has drawn opposition, including members of the Kennedy family.

"Three years and one month from today, I'm going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I'm going to need help holding the ladder," Kerry Kennedy, the daughter of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, posted on X. "Are you in? Applying for my carpenter's card today, so it'll be a union job!!!"

On Thursday, Trump's handpicked board of trustees voted to rename the building to also honor Trump. Eleven months ago, after he became president for the second time, he dismissed the entire board with new members and named himself chairman.
