The Jewish Museum was established on January 20, 1904, when Judge Mayer Sulzberger donated 26 ceremonial art objects to The Jewish Theological Seminary of America as the core of a museum collection. Today, The Jewish Museum maintains an important collection of 28,000 objects -- paintings, sculpture, works on paper, photographs, archeological artifacts, ceremonial objects, and broadcast media. Its distinguished exhibitions, public programs and educational activities have been acclaimed internationally for inspiring people of all backgrounds.

The Jewish Museum is located at 1109 Fifth Avenue at 92nd Street, Manhattan. Please see the Museum's website for hours and admission fees.
