Capital Jewish Museum

The new Capital Jewish Museum will inspire visitors to connect, reflect and act: connect across families and diverse communities, reflect on the relevance of the past to today, and act on behalf of their communities and values.

With its unconventional, experimental spirit, the CJM will explore the intersection of American Judaism and American democracy, and serve as a secular space for storytelling, connection, and dialogue across cultural communities in our city.

Given the recent rise in antisemitism and divisive rhetoric, there has never been a more important moment to make this kind of statement about Jewish life and civility in our nation’s capital.
