Join us at JAMsj for a Meet & Greet with incoming Executive Director, Vanessa Hatakeyama.

Vanessa started working at JAMsj in 2021 and is a longtime resident and community member of San Jose Japantown where she also sits on the Board of the Japantown Community Congress of San Jose and volunteers for several local organizations. Her leadership, warmth and candor has had an immeasurable impact on rebuilding JAMsj’s volunteer program and resuming Museum operations post-pandemic, building collaborative partnerships, and bringing on key board members and staff to strengthen the organization’s foundation. We are excited to continue to build upon the momentum that Vanessa has already generated! 

Join us at JAMsj on Monday, November 4th at 5:30PM in the Agricultural Exhibit for light refreshments and beverages as we celebrate Vanessa in her new role and toast to the the future of JAMsj.

Please RSVP by Monday, October 28 through this form.
