Jewish Museum Milwaukee is located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. The Jewish Museum Milwaukee's mission is to preserve and present the Jewish experience through the lens of Greater Milwaukee, and to celebrate the continuum of Jewish heritage and culture. The archives, exhibitions, programs and publications inspire public appreciation for the diversity of Jewish life in a local and global historic context. == Description == Jewish Museum Milwaukee, a program of the Milwaukee Jewish Federation, was founded in 2008. This milestone marked over twenty years of collecting, archiving, and exhibiting. The Museum's archives was established by the Milwaukee Jewish Federation Women’s Division's Archives/Roots Committee in the 1980s, which drove the establishment of the Milwaukee Jewish Historical Society in 1997. Jewish Museum Milwaukee's core exhibit explores the history of the Jewish experiences from both a local and global perspective. Each year the museum curates up to two original exhibits based on research of historical material housed by its archives, as well as three temporary exhibits on loan from institutions worldwide. Jewish Museum Milwaukee's archives house a significant collection of photographs, manuscripts, oral histories and newspaper clippings that record the organizational, educational, cultural, social, philanthropic and business activities of the Jewish community in Milwaukee. Primarily donated by local residents, these materials tell the story of the Jewish immigrant experience, from the first arrival of German and Eastern European Jews in the 1800s to those who left the former Soviet Union and settled in Milwaukee in the 1970s. Jewish Museum Milwaukee is located in the Milwaukee Jewish Federation’s Helfaer Community Service Building designed by Edward Durell Stone, architect of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington D.C. Jewish Museum Milwaukee is closed on Saturdays and for Jewish festivals and holy days: Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret, Simchat Torah, first two and last two days of Passover, and Shavuot. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jewish Museum Milwaukee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
