SCLT Explore History programs in December to feature Subjects of the Mikado – Sheridan’s Japanese Community

The Sheridan Community Land Trust has announced they will host Sheridan County historian Cynde Georgen and her program, “Subjects of the Mikado: Sheridan County’s Japanese Community, 1900-1930” as a feature of Explore History. 

Using contemporary newspaper reports, census records, newly discovered family histories and other sources, Georgen shines the light of detailed research on one of the county’s most interesting “disappeared” communities.

This Sheridan Community Land Trust Explore History program will be held on two dates. 

SCLT is inviting the Sheridan Regional community to attend one of the upcoming Explore History programs. Both programs run from 10:30 a.m. to noon. The program at the Hub on Smith in Sheridan will be Tuesday, Dec. 13, or at the TRVCC in Dayton on Tuesday, Dec. 20. There is no admission fee for these programs. 

SCLT will offer an option for people to attend the Dec. 13 program remotely via Zoom. To receive a Zoom link and passcode, please RSVP here.
