Hands Around the Kennedy Center

Tara Hoot and Hands Off the Arts will lead this joyful gathering centered on uplifting the Kennedy Center, her staff, and all the artists past, present and future who have graced her stages. This nostalgia-inspired community action allows those of us who love the Kennedy Center to celebrate the Center’s past and envision its future.

With the future still very much uncertain, now more than ever, the Center needs you to stand up for freedom of expression and against authoritarian overreach into arts and culture institutions. You have the opportunity to make a difference – show up with Hands Off the Arts and show your power as a part of Hands Around the Kennedy Center.
