Japan House at the University of Illinois

Japan House was founded in the 1960s as a place to teach traditional Japanese tea ceremonies and other aspects of Japanese culture. With a permanent facility built in 1998, Japan House has grown to be place of both peace and vital activity. Our Japanese gardens provide an opportunity for all to seek a place of tranquility and our varied programs teach all the incredible range and beauty of Japanese arts and culture. Programs are for both the University and public communities.
