In 2024-25, the Advanced Photography students at Venice Arts embarked on a special project, examining archival materials, visiting historical sites, conducting interviews, and creating artwork in response to the forced removal and internment of Japanese Americans in Los Angeles during WWII.

The resulting efforts of this twenty-four-week project is the exhibition and a zine - a creative effort to connect this history to the contemporary civil liberty threats and the personal lives of the participating students.
