About this event

Enjoy the 1930s and 1940s tunes of the Big Band era while the Minidoka Swing Band also pays tribute to the experiences of the Japanese Americans in internment camps during World War 2, $15 advance/$18 day of show.

Seeking to create as normal a life as possible, people in these camps formed sports teams, Boy Scout troops, and often held Saturday night dances for young adults and teens. Big Band tunes were popular and performed by bands formed in the camps.
