LIVING MUSEUM

The Living Museum is a project of the Education Department of the Museum of Jewish Heritage - A Living Memorial to the Holocaust. The Living Museum is made possible through the generous support of The Covenant Foundation. The statements made and the views expressed, however, are solely the responsibility of the grantee... The Living Museum helps middle school students in Jewish day and supplementary schools form a personal connection to modern Jewish history by showing how their lives, and that of their families, fit into the modern Jewish experience. With the help of his or her family, each student selects an artifact or heirloom that reflects an important part of his or her family history.
