Story

The Jewish Museum Milwaukee is dedicated to preserving and presenting the history of the Jewish people in southeastern Wisconsin and celebrating the continuum of Jewish heritage and culture. The history of American Jews is rooted in thousands of years of searching for freedom and equality. We are committed to sharing this story and the life lessons it brings with it, so that we may enhance the public’s awareness and appreciation of Jewish life and culture.

An incredible and heart felt expierence. Knowledgeable staff. Great amount of info on the history of the Jewish communities and the impact they had on the shaping of Milwaukee. You will not be disappointed.

The JMM is Milwaukee treasure. I can't think of anywhere else in the city where a somewhat limited space can have such an impact. The recent exhibits, including Stitching History (nationally renowned), Chasing Dreams (baseball), Project Mah Jong, and Fabric of Survival keep the museum feeling fresh and command return visits as this place continues to impress. If you live in Milwaukee, you should join; if you are visiting Milwaukee, you should visit. It's a gem of our community. Enjoy.
