Things to do
- Yes, Kawaii Is Art: Art can be cute and cute can be art at Japan House’s latest exhibit, which shows the history and artistry behind the uniquely Japanese concept of “kawaii.” Translating literally to “cute” or “adorable,” the idea has exploded into a movement that touches on art, technology, and fashion. The gallery partnered with artist Sebastian Masuda to create a space and series of events capturing kawaii in all forms. The show will be on view until Nov. 3.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else.
