SUMMARY:Exhibit: Broken Promises
DESCRIPTION:The Courtenay and District Museum is pleased to present the travelling exhibition Broken Promises from the Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre. \nGrounded in research from Landscapes of Injustice – a 7 year multi-disciplinary\, multi-institutional\, community engaged project\, this exhibit explores the dispossession of Japanese Canadians in the 1940s. It illuminates the loss of home and the struggle for justice of one racially marginalized community. The story unfolds by following seven narrators that include Eikichi Kagetsu of Fanny Bay and Hiroshi Okuda from Cumberland. Learn about life for Japanese Canadians in Canada before war\, the administration of their lives during and after war ends\, and how legacies of dispossession continue to this day. \nThank you to the Landscapes of Injustice Partner Institutions and the Government of Canada. \nSchool classes are welcome to visit this exhibit. Please arrange a time by contacting the museum at 250-334-0686 ext 2\, or by emailing us. Provide the grade level and number of people in the group. The visit is included with your general admission fee. The Landscapes of Injustice website affiliated with the exhibit offers interactive resources and lessons for both elementary and secondary students.

SUMMARY:Zeke Ziner : Freedom and Discipline
DESCRIPTION:Joe Ziner presents a retrospective legacy of Graphics and Sculpture from the oeuvre of his father Zeke Ziner.

Lovingly curated by Joe Ziner\, on display are examples of the various print series created in collaboration between Zeke and Joe. Most notable are  the relief prints created using edge grain cedar plates\, utilizing the linear depression of the spring wood with a gramophone needle to create the completely unique effect.
