About the company
The Japanese American National Museum (JANM), located in Los Angeles, California, is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and interpreting the history and experiences of Japanese Americans. Registered in SAM.gov since 2005, JANM serves as a critical cultural institution that documents, exhibits, and educates the public about Japanese American history, particularly focusing on the World War II incarceration period.

In terms of federal contract awards, JANM has executed limited contract work, including a $23,455 firm fixed price purchase order from the National Endowment for the Humanities for 2024 Jefferson Lecture Services and an $8,140 purchase order from the Smithsonian Institution for Workshop Coordination at the 2023 Folklife Festival. These contracts demonstrate JANM's capacity to provide specialized event coordination and lecture services to federal cultural institutions. The contracts were not associated with any specific set-aside programs and were awarded on a competitive basis, reflecting the museum's specialized expertise in cultural programming.

Notable grant projects include a $349,920 NEH grant to digitize 10,000 items from its permanent collection, a $978,044 National Park Service grant to redesign its core exhibition on Japanese American incarceration, and multiple grants from agencies like the Institute of Museum and Library Services to catalog and conserve historical collections. These grants consistently aim to preserve Japanese American historical experiences, develop comprehensive educational resources, and create innovative exhibitions that interpret critical periods of cultural history.
