Since its founding in 1984, the CJM has operated as a non-collecting institution, partnering with national and international cultural organizations to present timely and relevant exhibitions and programs representing the highest level of artistic achievement and scholarship. The galleries are temporarily closed while the museum develops a sustainable operating model for the future. Visit thecjm.org to sign up for monthly digital content on Jewish culture, history, art and ideas, and for information on renting the museum for special events and supporting its reopening.
