Hawai'i Museums Association is pleased to announce a Critique of Pearl Harbor’s WWII Valor in the Pacific National Monument Galleries Friday, March 23, 2012. In December 2010, the National Park Service opened its new exhibition at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. Included in the displays on the 1941 Japanese attack are the voices of Hawai‘i residents. This critique will examine the exhibit from different perspectives— museum professionals will offer evaluations while National Park Service staff respond & describe the challenges they faced. View the galleries from 4:00 to 6:00 pm. The critique session will start at 6:00 to 7:00 pm in the Pearl Harbor Memorial Theater.
