The Baum Collection, reinstalled and reinterpreted in 2000, helps the visitor explore the definition of Judaica and the reasons behind the collectors’ choices. On display is an extensive collection of objects from the Bezalel School of Art and Crafts in Jerusalem (1906-1929) and many other ritual items, including a charming folk-art miniature painted wood Torah ark.

A gift of the Jacob and Belle Rosenbaum Foundation, this exhibit features over 100 pre-war European, contemporary and Israeli crafted mezuzot. The exhibit is a glimpse into the Rosenbaums’ five decades of collecting and commissioning over 4,000 mezuzot.

The museum presents several exhibitions each year on aspects of Jewish life, art and culture. Click here for current exhibitions.
