 VJAMM Jams Beyond Baroque
By Don E. Geagan and Suzanne Thompson
In a time when we are consistently threatened by the loss of public space and facilities, such as the Venice Post Office, a very special building continues to serve the community. On Saturday, October 29th, a place dedicated to the possibilities of language, housed in the Old Venice Town Hall, Beyond Baroque welcomed over a hundred mostly Japanese Americans in  support of the Venice Japanese American Memorial Marker (VJAMM) to be placed on the northwest corner of Venice and Lincoln Boulevards.
