JAMsj is now closed to the public due to a major expansion project. 

This new Japantown attraction will feature 6400 square feet of interior space, allowing JAMsj to significantly expand its exhibits and community activities.  Please help us in continuing to tell the important history of Japanese Americans by contributing to our new building campaign.
