US-KENNEDY-50YRS-LEGACY

TO GO WITH AFP STORY US-KENNEDY-50YRS-LEGACY BY STEVE COLLINSON A memorial bust of former US President John F. Kennedy is seen as patrons attending the Washington National Opera walk in the lobby September 24, 2013 at the John F. Kennedy Center for the performing arts in Washington, DC. The bust was commissioned by the Kennedy Center and was sculpted by Robert Berks. It is made of bronze, is eight feet high, and weighs 3,000 pounds. Flanking the bust on each side is an interactive exhibit titled John F. Kennedy, His Life and Legacy. It provides visitors with a wealth of audiovisual information about President Kennedys career, his accomplishments, and his most memorable speeches. Music from the National Symphony Orchestra has echoed through the halls of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts since it opened in 1971. After Kennedy's assassination in 1963, the proposed building was dedicated to his memory, and funds approved to build it on 17 acres of land along the banks of the Potomac River. AFP PHOTO/Paul J.
