The Japan House is located in the International Center (Building 71) on the UWF Pensacola campus. It features an authentic tea room in the tradition of urasenke and an authentic Japanese “tatami” room built with materials brought from Japan. The mission of the Japan House is to provide opportunities for the community to experience and appreciate Japanese culture and history.
The Japan House features displays of artifacts collected from Japan. Ongoing workshops and activities are held regularly for those who seek to enjoy Japanese culture and meet with others. These workshops and activities include “sado” (tea ceremony), origami, calligraphy, language, ikebana (flower arrangement), washoku (Japanese cuisine), Japan House tours and more.
