Go Little Tokyo Go Little Tokyo is a community-based effort aimed at highlighting the unique destinations found in Little Tokyo.

Go Little Tokyo is a Little Tokyo Community Council project supported by Metro. Go Little Tokyo is a community led effort aimed at highlighting the unique cultural programs, community events, and dining and shopping experiences found in Little Tokyo. As one of Los Angeles’ most vibrant cultural hubs, there is an abundance of destinations and landmarks in and around this historic walkable neighborhood, and Go Little Tokyo will help you uncover them. Go Little Tokyo is a long term collaboration with local partners to provide an accessible resource that celebrates the community’s many assets and shares information with the public through a one-stop-shop website, social media outlets, self guided neighborhood tours, promotional materials, special events and graphic way-finding signage throughout the neighborhood. As Los Angeles transforms and expands its mass transit system and Little Tokyo becomes even more connected through the construction of Metro’s Regional Connector, there is no better moment to Go Little Tokyo and discover (or re-discover) one of Los Angeles’ most historically rich and energetic urban neighborhoods. Go Little Tokyo is a Little Tokyo Community Council (LTCC) project made possible with support from Metro. For more information about Go Little Tokyo, please email [email protected]

Move Your Body, Calm Your Mind Month in May was a great time for us to explore different ways to support our well-being. We decided to continue these small practices throughout the year, how and when they worked best for us. ✨

Check out some simple movements and calming activities that we tried! Even a few minutes each day to move, reset, and recharge can make a real difference over time. 🖍️

No time like October, and no place like Olympic Shop ⚾️

Celebrating its 50th anniversary last year, Olympic Shop first opened its doors in 1975 as a souvenir store for tourists visiting Los Angeles. These days, Olympic Shop has become a Dodger fan’s paradise, with over 400 items to choose from.

While the vast selection of memorabilia is what might bring customers in, owner Rumi Fujimoto is what gets them to stick around. We chatted with Rumi about what the store and the community mean to her, and what her must-have items in the shop are. 💙

Make sure to check out Olympic Shop the next time you’re in Little Tokyo!

Olympic Shop (est. 1975)
📍 246 1st St, Los Angeles, CA 90012
⏰ Mon-Fri: 9AM-5PM
Saturday: 9AM-4PM
Sunday: CLOSED

This small business highlight is made possible with support from the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
