Maison Culture Network Co., Ltd. was established on January 15, 2009, as a company providing places for gathering, learning, and opportunities for new discoveries through travel, responding to needs for casual communication and leisure activities. It was originally known as Seven Culture Network Co., Ltd. and operated as part of the Seven & i Group, running culture centers and sports schools inside Seven & i Group stores, as well as experience-based travel under the name 'Seven Travel Club.' The culture center business is divided into two main brands: Ikebukuro Community College, which was established in 1979 by the then Seibu Department Store and is located on the 8th and 9th floors of the Seibu Ikebukuro main store annex, and Seven Culture Club, which operates in Ario and Ito-Yokado stores. Note that 'York Culture Center' operated by 'Culture Co., Ltd.' in Kanagawa Prefecture in some Ito-Yokado stores is unrelated to this company. On October 1, 2025, the company changed its trade name from 'Seven Culture Network Co., Ltd.' to 'Maison Culture Network Co., Ltd.' Along with the name change, Seven Culture Club was renamed 'Maison Culture Club,' and Seven Travel Desk was renamed 'Maison Travel Desk.' As of 2026, the company operates 18 culture and sports school locations, mainly in Ito-Yokado and Ario stores, offering approximately 4,500 courses to about 30,000 customers.
