Abstract

The Study of Heritage and Memory - NEP - the Federal University of Santa Maria develops research project about the japanese immigration in Santa Maria. From interviews with immigrants, realized the invisibility of this community in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Aware of the undissociability between research and extension, the NEP has made the first exposition in honor of Japanese Immigration in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, celebrating 50 years of the arrival of the japaneses in the city and 100 years in Brazil. The exposition, temporary, and conducted in a space provided by the Secretariat of Culture of the city related the history of a group of people who dream with the quickly enrichment, but that ended up working on a semi- slave way in the city of Uruguaiana, west border of the State. The success of the exposition made the NEP to contact with other institutions of Japanese culture in the state to take the initiative of viabilization of a memorial to Japanese culture, once the actual state of Rio Grande do Sul does not have a museum or institution equivalent to preserving the history of the Japanese immigration.
