The Suitcase Project in the Age of COVID-19

May 22, 2020

The Suitcase Project, photographed by Kayla Isomura, made its debut in February 16, 2020 at the NJAHS Peace Gallery. With the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic and mandatory shelter in place restrictions, this exhibit takes on deeper universal meaning worldwide. Join us in conservation with exhibition curator / photographer Kayla Isomura, Joseph Shoji Lachmann, and Steph Ikeda. This exhibit and programming is made possible by a generous grant from the Henri & Tomoye Takahashi Charitable Foundation, the SF Grants for the Arts and matching support from the members of the Nat’l Japanese American Historical Society. The Suitcase Project was created by Kayla Isomura and The Nikkei National Museum and Cultural Centre in Burnaby, BC. Interview excerpts by video producer Mark Yuen.
