Manzanar, one of the ten War Relocation Authority concentration camps, has been the subject of multiple interpretations over the last fifty years. Culled from the permanent collection of the Japanese American National Museum, this exhibition also features work by Ansel Adams, Robert Hasuike, and Masumi Hayashi.

New additions to this exhibition include the recent acquisition of American Families, a weaving by Nisei artist Momo Nagano, which is a tribute to nearly 200 Japanese American friends and neighbors who were relocated from their 30th Street neighborhood in Los Angeles. Woven into this poignant work of art are the family names of those impacted by the evacuation of their Los Angeles neighborhood.

Presented in the Legacy Center of the Historic Building
