Topaz: Artists in Internment Exhibit
February 18 – March 31, 2012
Over 100,000 people of Japanese ancestry were held in ten remote camps beginning in 1942. Two-thirds of those displaced were American citizens. Not charged or convicted of any crime, they were incarcerated for up to three years in prison camps surrounded by barbed wire and guarded by armed men.
Topaz: Artists in Internment will feature artworks created during internment at the Topaz Camp. The exhibit will be on display at the San Leandro History Museum & Art Gallery beginning Saturday, February 18 and will be open free of charge to the public on weekends from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM until March 31.
A special opening reception will be held on Saturday, February 25 from 2:00 to 5:00 PM.
The traveling exhibit is made possible by funding from the Western States Arts Federation, Utah Arts & Museums, and the National Endowment for the Arts. The artwork is owned by the Topaz Museum, a non-profit organization that will soon construct a museum to preserve the history of Topaz.
