Dan Kwong: Manzanar Baseball Livestream
Description
Join us at 18th Street Arts Center for a special livestream gathering with artist and storyteller Dan Kwong’s Manzanar Baseball Project, bringing together baseball, history, and Japanese American community memory.
The project revisits the powerful history of baseball at Manzanar, where Japanese Americans incarcerated during World War II built teams, leagues, and a vibrant baseball culture within the camp. Through storytelling, performance, and community engagement, Kwong connects this history to larger questions of resilience, belonging, and what communities create in the face of displacement.
Gather with us to watch the livestream together and experience this ongoing project connecting Manzanar’s past with communities today.
