Japan House, Cultural center in Moscow, Russia
Japan House is a cultural center in Moscow dedicated to Japanese culture and cross-cultural exchange. The facility features rotating exhibitions, Japanese language classes, and hands-on workshops in traditional arts throughout the year.
The center was founded in 2012 and has become a key venue for introducing Japanese traditions to Russian audiences. Since opening, it has organized the HINODE POWER JAPAN festival annually to showcase Japanese arts and culture to the public.
The center regularly hosts workshops led by Japanese masters who teach ink painting, calligraphy, flower arranging, manga, and paper folding. Visitors can learn these traditional techniques hands-on and work directly with experienced artists.
The center is located at Savvinskaya Naberezhnaya 15 in Moscow and welcomes visitors interested in cultural exchange and learning. Check ahead for current workshop schedules and exhibitions, as programming changes regularly throughout the year.
The center brings contemporary Japanese artists to Moscow to demonstrate and teach their crafts directly to audiences. This makes it a rare place where visitors can learn authentic techniques from artists based in Japan, rather than from local instructors alone.
