The Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre (NNMCC) has digitized over 3900 photographs and negatives that capture the life of the Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre from its pre-history in the 1980s to the present day. 2020 marked the 20th anniversary of the opening of the NNMCC and celebrates 40 years of the Japanese Canadian community’s dream to establish a community archives to honour, preserve and share Japanese Canadian history and heritage for a better Canada.
The digitization of 20 in 2020 was digitized with support from the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre through its BC History Digitization Program.
