(re)collection – A collaboration with Lost and Found: Family Photos Swept by the 3.11 East Japan Tsunami

(re)collection: Lost & Found

INTERSECTION | WHEN: Sept 12, 7–9 pm | WHERE: 925 Mission St | DETAILS: After the 2011 Tohoku earthquake hit, a massive tsunami swept away houses, and everything that was inside them. As the search for survivors ended and attention turned to the clean up mission, Self-Defense forces, firemen, and policemen who were in Tohoku to help survivors began to pick up photos they found in the mud, and to store them in an elementary school gymnasium.
