The National Park Service, through the Preservation of Japanese American Confinement Sites Grant Program (CFDA 15.933), awarded a $600,000 Project Grant to the Puyallup Valley Chapter of the Japanese American Citizens League. The grant will support the creation of a permanent exhibit at the Washington State Fair in Puyallup, Washington, to educate visitors about the 7,600 Japanese and Japanese Americans who were incarcerated at the Puyallup Assembly Center during World War II. The exhibit will feature video recordings, historical artifacts, oral histories from survivors, and a recreation of living quarters to convey the injustices experienced by the incarcerees and demonstrate the ongoing relevance of this history. The project aims to be completed by November 1, 2025.
