Little Tokyo's arts and culture generates over $55 million per year and empowers our historic Japantown. Join us as we celebrate this important new report that examines the economic and socio-political impact of arts and culture in Little Tokyo. SLT looks forward to sharing Protecting Ibasho: The Impact of Arts and Culture in Little Tokyo with our historic Japantown, the City of Los Angeles, and beyond! The launch event will include a presentation by researcher Jonathan Crisman, PhD, and a panel discussion with a selection of local cultural institutions, including a local arts and cultural organization, legacy business, and arts activist!
