CAAM Introduces Memories to Light: Asian American Home Movie Project

Film & Other Media
In Person
Japanese American Museum of San Jose
535 N. Fifth Street San Jose, California, United States of America

Date: Dec. 18, 2013

Time: 7 p.m.


Please join us for an evening with Stephen Gong, film historian and executive director of the Center for Asian American Media (CAAM), as he presents a selection of vintage local Japanese American home movies from CAAM's collection and talks about an exciting initiative by CAAM and how the community can participate.

Memories to Light is a project to collect and digitize home movies and to share them – and the stories they tell — to a broad public. Come and enjoy some of the films that CAAM has collected thus far and let them know if you have home movies to share.

Cost: Free with admission to the museum (non-members, $5; students and seniors over age 65, $3; JAMsj members and children under 12, free)
