Bring your brown bag lunch and join us as we explore connections between Japanese American experiences and California farming. Special guest Nikiko Masumoto will bring objects from the Masumoto Family Farm, share stories of learning to work with her jiichan’s tools, and pose questions about how the objects that tie us to the land inform how we construct meaning through food.

JANM Collections staff will also show artifacts and archival material from the permanent collection that relate to Japanese American contributions to the agriculture industry.

Space is limited. RSVP by March 3 using the form below. You can also contact memberevents@janm.org or 213.830.5646.
