Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre

Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre in Burnaby cares for Japanese Canadian history and Japanese culture in Canada. The campus holds exhibits, year-round programs, and festivals such as Nikkei Matsuri.

If you want to help, volunteers 16 and older can work in visitor services, education, the bookstore, the gallery, collections, or special events after signing up in Better Impact and finishing a free criminal record check. Matsuri weekend shifts are a clear seasonal way in.

Come for the exhibits and calendar if you mainly want to attend. Use the volunteer page if you want a recurring role tied to Japanese Canadian community life.
