Mission Statement
The Oregon Jewish Museum is the Pacific Northwest's only Jewish museum, located in the region's second largest metropolitan area. The Oregon Jewish Museum's mission is dedicated to the preservation, research and exhibition of art, archival materials and artifacts of the Jewish people. It is the repository for archival documents, artifacts, and photographs concerning the history of the Jews in Oregon and endeavors to discover and collect all materials that may help to illuminate this history.
Description
The Museum brings innovative exhibitions about the history, culture and art of the Jewish people to this region--cultural enrichments that would be totally absent without its efforts. We aim to provide educational opportunities to a broad range of audiences, from youth to senior citizens, and those from all backgrounds.
