" My visit to Japan House was mixed. The exhibits were beautiful and interesting, showcasing contemporary and traditional Japanese art. However, the experience was slightly marred by overly strict security measures. I felt like we were getting followed around the exhibit without reason. It made my family somewhat anxious while enjoying the art. " (*Curated Review*)

" Japan House offers unique displays each time I visit! This last time was focused on traditional pottery, and it was amazing to learn about the craftsmanship behind each piece. You can feel the love and dedication put into the displays. The café served great matcha too! I spent a lovely afternoon there soaking up the atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a pleasant afternoon exploring the Japan House! The current exhibit was dedicated to modern interpretations of traditional crafts, which was really enlightening. I found the library quite peaceful and a great spot to relax as well. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. Overall, I think it's an excellent experience for anyone interested in culture! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was expecting a bit more from my visit to the Japan House. The current exhibit was nice, but it felt very small and somewhat rushed. There was a lot to admire, but I thought there would be more depth in the displays. Service was fine, but I felt like the staff could have been more engaging. Overall, worth a visit if you're in the area, but perhaps not a destination trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" I leafed through the art pieces and was genuinely moved by the stories behind them. Even small exhibits can have a big impact, and Japan House proved that. I appreciated how they created a space both respectful of art and inviting for all visitors to enjoy without rush. A lovely way to spend an afternoon! " (*Curated Review*)

Although it was small, the attention to detail in each exhibit was impressive. I felt a strong sense of peace during my visit, perfect for appreciating art at a leisurely pace. I will definitely return whenever I'm back in LA! " (*Curated Review*)

" I heard about Japan House from a friend and decided to check it out. Even though the space is modest, they make great use of it. The exhibitions are top-notch and very informative. It was nice to see some sessions dedicated to traditional Japanese tea ceremonies. I would highly recommend visiting for anyone who loves culture! " (*Curated Review*)
