<div dir="ltr">Thank you to everyone who applied for the Collections Manager position at the Nikkei National Museum. This competition is now closed and we have successfully hired a replacement for Scott Owens who leaves us at the end of the month to take on the role of City Archivist in Kelowna. His successor at the NNM is Lisa Kiyomi Uyeda, MAS, who has a solid background and training in archival systems and collections management plus a wealth of Japanese Canadian community work experience in both Toronto and Vancouver. We are very sad to see Scott go, but wish him well in his future position, and look forward to welcoming Lisa to our museum team.<br clear="all"><div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"><font color="#999999">Sherri Kajiwara</font><br></span><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;font-size:10pt"><font color="#999999">Director|Curator<br></font></span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:red">Nikkei</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"><font color="#999999"> National Museum <br></font></span><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153);font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;font-size:10pt">6688 Southoaks Crescent, Burnaby BC V5E 4M7<br></span><b style="color:rgb(153,153,153);font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;font-size:10pt">T</b><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153);font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;font-size:10pt"> 604.777.7000, ext.112 </span><b style="color:rgb(153,153,153);font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;font-size:10pt">F</b><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;font-size:10pt"><font color="#999999"> 604.777.7001<br></font></span><a href="http://nikkeiplace.org" style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;font-size:10pt" target="_blank">nikkeiplace.org</a><br><br></p><p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:gray"><i><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:gray"><i>MINGEI: Japan's Enduring Folk Arts.
