A LITTLE BIT OF TOKYO IN LITTLE TOKYO- Japanese American National Museum

The James Irvine Japanese Garden is a traditional Japanese Garden located on the Little Tokyo campus of the Japanese American Cultural & Community Center. The garden is open to the public for enjoyment seven days a week between 10am and 4pm unless there is a special event. The Garden also serves as a unique and elegant venue for weddings, photo shoots, memorial services and other private events.

History

Established in 1981.

A centerpiece of the Japanese American Cultural & Community Center, the Garden also known as Seiryu-en or the Garden of the Clear Stream, was constructed by more than 200 volunteers who contributed more than 3,000 man-hours. The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden is open to the public for enjoyment seven days a week between 10am and 4pm unless there is a special event. The Garden also serves as a unique and elegant venue for weddings, photo shoots, memorial services and other private events.

History

Established in 1981.

A centerpiece of the Japanese American Cultural & Community Center, the Garden also known as Seiryu-en or the Garden of the Clear Stream, was constructed by more than 200 volunteers who contributed more than 3,000 man-hours. The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

Established in 1981.

A centerpiece of the Japanese American Cultural & Community Center, the Garden also known as Seiryu-en or the Garden of the Clear Stream, was constructed by more than 200 volunteers who contributed more than 3,000 man-hours. The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.

The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.
