Description
The Jewish Children’s Museum provides exhibitions and programs for all children in an educational and entertaining format. Through contemporary technology and a hands-on approach to learning, visitors experience Jewish history, values and traditions in a manner that inspires an increased interest in Jewish culture. Primarily, the Museum serves elementary school-age children and their families, and is a resource and model, nationally and internationally, for interactive education on Jewish themes.
As hands-on as a museum can be, the JCM allows parents and children to learn about Jewish history and heritage in an engaging environment that utilizes innovative multimedia technologies. With an art gallery, computer labs, a game show studio, a theater, golf course, and craft workshop, there's no shortage of things to see and do in this museum.
