A reflection on history and memory honoring the experiences of incarcerated Japanese Americans.
On view for one weekend, Tree of Remembrance honors the legacy of the original Wakasa Memorial Monument. We invite you to join us for a weekend of reflection through this immersive installation, which includes projections, sculpture, and community. Visitors are encouraged to share their thoughts and memories by writing on a memory tag and adding it to the Tree of Remembrance.
We welcome you to a Community Gathering featuring:
- Taiko drum performance by Jimi Nakagawa
- Welcome by Masako Takahashi
- Blessing by Reverend Yano from the Konko Church
- Remarks by Patrick Hayashi
- “We Shall Overcome” performed by Theresa Cardinale
Tree of Remembrance is on view Thursday, Feb. 20 through Monday, Feb. 24.
