Le John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts (ou Kennedy Center), est une salle de spectacle située le long du Potomac, près de l'hôtel du Watergate à Washington DC, aux États-Unis. Le centre ouvrit ses portes en 1971 et fut dessiné par l'architecte Edward Durell Stone. Sa construction, qui commença en 1964, coûta au total 70 millions de dollars.
