The Maruki Gallery preserves memories of wartime atrocities and other forms of violence through the exhibition of the Hiroshima Panels. Iri and Toshi Maruki, who jointly produced the series of 15 paintings, opened the Gallery in 1967 hoping to capture visitors' imagination, prevent similar atrocities, and invigorate others who are suffering. This project will fund the restoration and preservation of the Hiroshima Panels, and support the construction a new gallery building.
