Royal/T, the restaurant and art gallery combo on Washington, has been celebrating all things Hello Kitty with an exhibition and events called Three Apples: Hello Kitty 35th Birthday Party and Exhibition.  

Here's a fantastic recap of the opening night and great pictures from Food Librarian, and here's one of a daytime visit to the gallery.  (Food Librarian's photoset embedded after the jump.)

(Update: Here's a cool look at Hello Kitty's history from the LA Times.)

The exhibition is open everyday from 10am - 10pm, and closes November 15.  In addition to the exhibition, there are special events on weekends.

Goodie bags given to the first 100 visitors for every event, and there will be DJ powered music at each event. Here are the remaining events:
