Archival Preservation
We are actively working to stabilize and preserve the Nakashima Archives collection.
The archives include photographs, architectural drawings, film, documents, and letters connected to the George Nakashima Woodworkers, the Peace Altar project, the life and travels of the Nakashima family and their experiences, including being incarcerated in Minidoka, Idaho during World War II.
Buildings
The Nakashima Foundation for Peace is entrusted with the care of the collection of furniture, as well as the 15 modernist structures that George Nakashima built on the property.
Furniture Authentication
The Nakashima Foundation for Peace is the only source available to provide authentication and true replacement value of any pieces made by George or Mira Nakashima. Using detailed Nakashima archives, we are able to research and locate the order records of any Nakashima piece made from the early 1950’s to today.
