Thank You for Your Votes!
The Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Washington was awarded $75.000 in the Partners in Preservation grant offered by American Express and the National Trust for Historic Preservation for noteworthy historic sites in Puget Sound!
After a month of whirlwind voting - all the ballots are in and we are humbled by the support and effort shown by the community. We could not have done it without your help!
Our grant will allow for restoration of the main façade of the Historic Register Buildings by removing existing asbestos and vinyl siding and restoring original wood siding and windows.
Thank you for your support!!
We are an organization that is committed to preserving, promoting and sharing Japanese and Japanese American culture and heritage. We do so by creating, funding and supporting multi-cultural and intergenerational education which celebrates diversity, art, culture, and language. We are also devoted to preserving Japanese American history and heritage. By honoring both the contributions and challenges of Pacific Northwest Issei and Nisei generations, we offer publications, family legacy projects and the Northwest Nikkei Museum.
