Let us help you tell your story. Join us for a three-part workshop specifically focused on first-time second-generation Japanese-American (Nisei) writers.

Workshop leader Naomi Shibata has previously shepherded other Nisei writers towards recording their own memoirs and remembrances. She helps to demystify the writing process so participants can record these vital family stories.

Naomi, a long-time docent with the National Japanese American Historical Society (NJAHS) in San Francisco, is the author of Bend with the Wind, a celebration of the life, times and family of her mother, Grace Eto Shibata.

No previous writing experience needed!

Tell your stories as you would like them told. Tell them so that they are never forgotten.
