Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor will participate May 17 in the “National Youth Summit on Japanese American Incarceration in World War II.”
The outreach program for middle- and high-school students is sponsored by the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History in partnership with the Japanese American National Museum.
The Pacific Aviation Museum is one of four Smithsonian affiliate organizations hosting a regional youth summit, and is working locally with the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii to host a panel discussion with scholars and family members of those incarcerated at Honouliuli Internment Camp.
The event will be held from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the aviation museum theater, and is free and open to the public. Teachers are encouraged to bring their students to the summit, the museum said.
Seating must be reserved in advance. For more information, call 445-9137 or email education@pacificaviationmuseum.org.
