Artist Tour | “Kawaii” Exhibition with Sebastian Masuda

Sebastian Masuda, the pioneer of kawaii (cute or adorable) culture, is returning to Los Angeles one last time before the exhibition ends to lead an exclusive and rare “Yes, KAWAII is Art -EXPRESS YOURSELF-” gallery tour for a small group of guests during this holiday weekend.

This hour-long tour invites guests to meet the “King of Kawaii” and fully immerse in the colorful and vibrant world he created in the gallery space. During the tour, Masuda will share a rare “behind the scenes” glimpse as he shares his design process, personal inspirations and candid stories about his career.

As a sneak preview of what guests might expect on this special day, watch a visit by LA Rams’ Quentin Lake’s exhibition visit here on Instagram, and JAPAN HOUSE Los Angeles Advisor YOSHIKI’s exhibition visit here.

This is a rare chance for fans and newcomers alike to engage directly with the artist and gain a deeper understanding of the kawaii cultural movement.

We'd appreciate your consideration in bringing a new stuffed plushie to participate in the "Yes, KAWAII is Art" Plush Toy Drive to help put a smile on young patients at UCLA Mattel Children's Hospital.
