Art in Captivity: Japanese Incarceration Camps in WWII
Osher Lifelong Learning Institute

Resistance took many different forms in the Japanese incarceration camps of WWII, from draft resistance, to saying NO-NO on the loyalty questionnaire, to expressions in art, music, poetry, and photography. What you will see is the harshness of their daily lives, being held against their will. Additionally, we will explore the vocational side of the camps, from job training to the many work positions that the Japanese performed, jobs and services that the War Relocation Authority was unable to provide.
