Virtual 2nd Saturday: The Yamato Colony, Museum of Florida History Time: 11:00 a.m. The Yamato Colony was a unique community founded at the turn of the twentieth century in southern Florida.

To commemorate Asian American and Pacific Islander Month, we will be looking into the history and legacy of this Japanese community in Florida. We will also learn about and create origami Koinobori (carp streamers) in honor of Japan’s Children’s Day. https://www.facebook.com/events/216565219855638
