Manitoba Moments
With support from the Winnipeg Foundation’s Centennial Institute Grant Program, 12 short vignettes of approximately two to three minutes in length were created by the Japanese Cultural Association of Manitoba’s History Preservation Committee members to preserve the unique history of the Japanese Canadian community in Manitoba. All these will be available on the JCAM website and You Tube for the public to access.
Family History Videos: Through a Generational Lens
The purpose of this project, funded through the Ethnocultural Support Program grant, is to engage younger generation of Japanese Canadians to research their families’ past and produce a short video on the history of their family whether it be grandparents/ parents or a significant individual. Five filmmakers have created their family videos: Niina Dubik, Aislyn Chester, Alex Miki, Kaoru Suzuki and Danica Swire
