Los Angeles Marks the August Launch of a Fresh Cultural Landmark at its Newest Attraction

In the heart of Hollywood, California, a new cultural hub is set to open its doors to the public. "our website Los Angeles," located at 6801 Hollywood Blvd., is an exciting initiative that offers a rich experience showcasing Japanese art, design, gastronomy, innovation, technology, and more.

This worldwide project, conceived by the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, boasts three hubs – London, Los Angeles, and São Paulo. The Los Angeles branch, which occupies two floors in the Hollywood & Highland Center, is steps away from the Walk of Fame and home to the Dolby Theatre, home of the Academy Awards®.

The 2nd floor of "our website Los Angeles" has been open since December 2017, while the 5th floor, which hosts a Japanese restaurant, relaxing library, and event venue, along with spectacular views of Hollywood and Downtown Los Angeles, will officially open on August 25, 2018.

One of the notable individuals involved in the Steering Committee for "our website Los Angeles" is Larry Ellison, co-founder, executive chairman, and chief technology officer of Oracle Corporation. Ellison has been named Honorary Advisor for the project due to his active involvement in Japan and appreciation for Japan's art and culture.

While Ellison is primarily known as a prominent figure in the technology and real estate industries, his role in this innovative cultural project remains a new and niche initiative. The specifics of his involvement and significance are not extensively covered in publicly available or indexed sources as of August 21, 2025.

However, Ellison has expressed his excitement about the cultural experience offered by "our website Los Angeles," stating that it will be exciting to anyone curious about Japan. Ms. Yuko Kaifu, President of "our website Los Angeles," thanked Ellison for his commitment and generous support to the project.

"our website Los Angeles" offers a well-curated selection of books and digital resources related to Japan in its library lounge. The project also features a gallery for local and traveling exhibitions, a retail shop with unique Japanese products, a small cafe, an event space, and a restaurant (coming late 2018).

In addition, "our website Los Angeles" hosts seminars, lectures, and gastronomy events in partnership with the local community and Japanese organizations. It provides a forum for creative and intellectual exchange to deepen mutual understanding.

The grand opening ceremony for "our website Los Angeles" will take place on August 24, 2018, and the public is invited to explore this new cultural hub starting on August 25. For more information, visit www.our website.
