Nikkei Internment Memorial Centre (NIMC)- 306 Josephine Street, New Denver, BC
A National Historic Site dedicated to telling the story of over 22,000 Japanese Canadians who were forcibly relocated during World War II. Located on the site of “The Orchard” internment camp, the NIMC contains original buildings, period artifacts and interpretive displays as well as the Heiwa Teien Peace Garden, designed by the renowned Japanese Canadian gardener, Tomomichi (Roy) Sumi.
The Nikkei Internment Memorial Centre relies on seasonal revenue to help with operating and maintaining the Centre. Due to COVID-19, heat waves and wildfires, visitors numbers are down and the NIMC needs your help. We hope to raise funds so we can continue to tell the story of the Japanese Canadian internment. Your donation will assist with the conservation and preservation of this important national historic site. Thank you for your support!
