The National Museum is a dynamic community-based institution that works in partnership with individuals, organizations and diverse communities. Its programming reflects the Japanese American experience within the context of America’s diverse history, culture, and arts, and within the international context of Japanese who have migrated to other parts of the world. The National Museum is continually engaged in major projects that further its mission to promote understanding and appreciation of America's ethnic and cultural diversity by sharing the Japanese American experience.
Enduring Communities: The Japanese American Experience in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, and Utah is a collaboration between educators, communities, students, and the National Museum to create curricula about the Japanese American World War II experience for every classroom in these five states.
The National Center partners with educators and community-based mentors to inspire youth to become active, informed participants in shaping democracy in America.
Through key programs and intitiatives, the National Museum focuses on increasing the involvement of Japanese Americans in the U.S.-Japan relationship, and on expanding understanding within Japan of the Japanese American experience.
