Rancho Los Alamitos Exploration Talk

Rancho Los Alamitos hosts a lecture series to explore local history.

On June 26, learn about the vibrant fishing village that once thrived in East San Pedro. This talk explains the vital contributions of Japanese fishermen to the Southern California fishing industry during the early 20th century. Learn about the once-thriving Japanese Fishing Village, its erasure during WWII through the forced removal and incarceration of its residents, and the destruction of the entire community, except for two historic buildings known as the Tuna Street Buildings.

The Rancho will host three speakers from the Terminal Islanders Association and a special taiko drumming performance by Ryujin Taiko.

Tickets are $10 per person.
