What We Do: Facing History & Ourselves uses lessons of history to challenge teachers and their students to stand up to racism, antisemitism, and other forms of bigotry and hate. Our classroom resources and professional development offerings examine racism, antisemitism, and prejudice at pivotal moments in history; we help students learn about the impact of choices made in the past, and connect them to the choices they will confront in their own lives. Facing our shared history and how it informs our attitudes and behaviors allows us to choose a world of equity and justice. Our Values: We create space for each other. We seek out and learn from diverse experiences and perspectives. We are curious. We ask big questions, create connections, and dig into the complexity of our actions and behaviors, past and present. We listen first and listen actively. We consider listening a practice and skill, not just an activity. We act with empathy and kindness. We work to understand others and build a world where everyone feels they belong. We stand up. We recognize injustice and speak up when we see it.

Welcome to the Jewish Museum, a museum on New York City’s Museum Mile at the intersection of art and Jewish culture for people of all backgrounds. Founded in 1904, the Museum was the first institution of its kind in the United States and one of the oldest Jewish museums in the world. The Museum maintains a unique collection of nearly 30,000 works of art, ceremonial objects, and media reflecting the global Jewish experience over more than 4,000 years. Our distinguished exhibition history reveals a deep and rich exploration of Jewish culture and identity, and includes some of the most seminal exhibitions of the 20th and 21st centuries. Our dynamic education programs – from talks and lectures, to performances, to hands-on art making and more – serve a wide range of audiences, including families, teens, students, educators, and visitors with disabilities.
