Memories of Korea
March 27 - December 31, 2010
June 25, 2010 marks the 60th anniversary of the beginning of the Korean War. This exhibition recalls the war through the eyes and memories of its participants. Letters, diary entries, photographs, and artifacts illustrate the experiences of the people who were caught up in what has come to be called “the forgotten war.” In the end, the war resulted in a stalemate, and its aftermath remains at the center of international concern sixty years after it began.
