The Anthropological Studies Center (ASC) will complete a display case exhibit featuring archaeological artifacts unearthed during construction of the SF MUNI Chinatown Station. The display case will be professionally installed by Work of Art installers next to the existing interpretive panel at the Chinatown Station. ASC will collaborate with the Chinese Historical Society of America for input on the interpretive content of the display case. The completed exhibit will be inside of a secured display case, installed at the SF MUNI Chinatown Station.

The Anthropological Studies Center (ASC) will complete the development, outreach, fabrication, and installation of Amache Recreation Hall interpretive exhibits to meet the site’s new interpretive needs and standards since the site has become part of the National Park Service (NPS) system. Inclusion in NPS has altered the standards which exhibit fabrication, installation, and design are required to meet. This project will develop and install the first interpretive components on site since NPS designation and will therefore require further collaboration and review.

The Anthropological Studies Center (ASC) will conduct a study of the historical Chinese population at Malakoff Diggins State Historic Park, Nevada County. The intent of the project will be to investigate and interpret the history of the Chinese community of the gold rush town of North Bloomfield, located in the park, and to identify and assess cultural resources associated with that population.

The Anthropological Studies Center's Oral Historian/Staff Archaeologist, Dana Shew, will serve as a subject matter expert (SME) to produce a resource study on Colorado's WWII Japanese internment site, Amache. The study will synthesize existing knowledge of Amache, conduct comparative analysis between Amache and similar sites of significance, and establish themes for the scholarly and stakeholder communities to further investigate.

The Anthropological Studies Center (ASC) will revise and update the Amache Interpretation Master Plan. An updated interpretive plan will more fully integrate the needs, perspectives, and voices of a stakeholder community that has substantially grown in the last decade and consider the new and continued ways in which this community interacts with the site. New advancements in technology and the opportunities they present now and for the future will also be updated.
