Jocelyn, Graham, Tim, and Anthony were honored to represent Upland at the grand opening of the Japanese Hall in Gering, Nebraska, on Saturday. We are proud to have designed and built the majority of the exhibits in the historic building, which was moved to the Legacy of the Plains Museum grounds.

The Hall was a focal point of the Japanese-American community in the area. The exhibits feature artifacts and stories that span early immigration, discriminatory laws, building businesses, recreation, patriotism and involvement in the U.S. military, internment camps, and the continued legacy of Japanese descendants.

What a celebration! The opening ceremony started with stunning Taiko drumming, and the ribbon was cut by Japanese Consul-General Yanagi and Nebraska Governor Pillen. Hundreds of people attended the family events throughout the day and explored the exhibits.

Congratulations to Vickie Schaepler, who was the primary mover and shaker behind the project. The Upland team is proud to have collaborated with Vickie and the rest of the Japanese Hall Committee to help preserve the legacy of Japanese immigrants in Nebraska and the High Plains!

Happy Father's Day from Tokuzo Sakurada and his sons Yukeo, Shogi, Masami, and Shizuo!

Tokuzo Sakurada immigrated from Japan to the North Platte Valley where he grew sugar beets and helped found the Japanese Hall in Scottsbluff. Thanks to the Legacy of the Plains Museum, the community building has a permanent home and will reopen featuring collections from the Japanese community in early 2024.

Currently on exhibit at the Nebraska History Museum is "Preserving a Legacy", a collaborative exhibit with the Legacy of the Plains featuring stories of the Japanese Americans in Nebraska like the Sakuradas.

Our biggest year yet! Upland 2022 Year in Review -

A big order of twenty-five custom showcases for the Lincoln Memorial Museum. I honestly forgot about this one, but it was certainly a big undertaking and created an interesting new product line.
