Welcome
to the Jewish Museum of Maryland, America's leading museum of regional
Jewish history, culture and community. The Museum interprets the Jewish
experience in America, with special attention to Jewish life in the state
of Maryland. The Museum was founded in 1960 to rescue and restore the
historic Lloyd Street Synagogue, and has become a cultural center for
the Jewish community and for those interested in Jewish history and traditions.
Today,
the Museum campus includes the historic Lloyd Street and B'nai Israel
Synagogues and a modern museum building with changing exhibition galleries,
program areas, a research library, museum shop, and meeting rooms. Through
our collections, exhibitions, sites and programs, we encourage discourse
about Jewish life in Maryland and beyond. Come join us for an exciting,
engaging museum experience.
