The Puyallup Valley Japanese American Citizens League (JACL) is building the Remembrance Gallery to bring awareness and to commemorate the Japanese and Japanese Americans unjustly incarcerated in 1942 on the Puyallup Fairgrounds. We are asking for your help to spread the word about the Gallery.
The deadline to make spelling corrections or name inclusions for the memorial portion of the Gallery is December 1st, 2023.
If you have family or friends who were sent to Puyallup please check their names by visiting https://www.puyallupvalleyjacl.org/puyallup-assembly-center-names.
Gallery completion is scheduled for September 2024. Our fundraising goal is $1.85 million, and to date we have raised $1.7 million. Our Honorary Co-Chairs are Bill Weyerhaeuser, Frank Fukui, and Penny Fukui.
For questions, contact Sharon Sobie Seymour, Project Manager at: ssproevents@comcast.net.
