The Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage, The Museum of Diversity and Tolerance, is located in Beachwood, Ohio, and opened on October 11, 2005. The Museum's mission is to reach out to people of all cultures, faiths, races and religions to build bridges of understanding between all people. In two permanent collections, ''An American Story'' and ''The Temple - Tifereth Israel Gallery'', compelling personal stories and oral histories are brought to life by film, computer interactives, special effects and dramatic exhibitions that feature unique artifacts, art, documents and images. More than 165,000 people visited the Museum in its first three years of operation, including more than 50,000 school children. The Museum raises philanthropic funding for many of these school visits. Co-founder Milton Maltz’s company, The Malrite Company, was the lead developer. Malrite focuses on the development of innovative museum projects around the country, including the International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C. ==An American Story== This is an exhibit which includes: Take the Test: Hands-on, interactive experiences including the same citizenship test given to U.S. immigrants. * Playland to the Palace: From the Marx Brothers to “Seinfeld” the history of Jewish entertainers in a 1920s style Nickelodeon Theater. A film focusing on theater, music and performers is narrated by Oscar-winning actor Joel Grey, star of ''Cabaret'' and son of Yiddish comedian and musician Mickey Katz. * The World Remade: The modern state of Israel, why its founding was so important as the first democracy in the Middle East, and the close ties between Israel and Cleveland. * The World Destroyed: The horrors of the Holocaust and the ability of the human spirit to triumph. Oral histories provided by survivors and their children that tell of the Holocaust from the perspective of Northeast Ohioans. * To Serve: Jews and other immigrant groups have been the backbone of U.S. patriotism, starting with the American Revolution. Captivating wartime stories shared first-hand by those who fought and served our country. 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「Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
