The Wasatch Front North JACL is proud to be working together with the
Brigham City Museum of Art & History for the 2025 Day of Remembrance!

Their SPECIAL EXHIBITION:
Uncovering the Journey:
Japanese American Pioneers in Box Elder County
will open on February 15, 2025.

In order to create this locally produced exhibition in cooperation with the University of Utah, Utah State University, the City of Brigham City, and the Brigham City Library, they have created a wish list of things that would make this exhibition a unique experience for our visitors and students from area schools.

Please review their list of wanted items HERE to see if you can help them build their display.
