HistoryTalks! The Evergreen Ballroom @ Lacey City Hall, Council Chambers

The Evergreen Ballroom story is an immigrant story, a local community story, and a music lovers’ story. From the time it was constructed to the last day that music played, the dance hall saw a number of people cross its stage who would go on to musical fame. In this presentation, Rebecca Sanchez will cover her research from a series of local history articles published on Thurston Talk.

Hybrid Format: Come in person or join online.

South Sound Day of Remembrance @ Washington State History Museum
Tickets
May 15 @ 5:30 pm – 8:00 pm

Join us for an evening of commemoration as we recognize the 83rd anniversary of the wartime forced eviction of people of Japanese ancestry from South Puget Sound on May 17-18, 1942.

Take a walking tour through downtown Tacoma, the site of the city’s lost Japantown. The tour will make stops exploring significant sites in Japanese American history before reconvening at the Washington State History Museum for a taiko drum performance. The performance will be followed by a brief procession to Union Station to remember the site where the Japanese American community was forced to report before being sent to prison camps throughout the West.

This free program is held in partnership with Downtown on the Go.
