Jewish Museum of Florida

About this activity

Occupying two historic Art Deco buildings, what was once Miami's first synagogue built in 1929 is now the Jewish Museum of Florida - a fascinating museum that the older kids will learn a great deal at. 

The museum is filled with exhibits that tell the history of the Jewish community in the area, and it's a great way for kids to learn more about the Jewish experience within the state.

The core exhibit at the Jewish Museum of Florida is MOSAIC: Jewish Life In Florida, where a timeline wall, and over 600 photos and documents tell the story of 250 years of Jewish history in Florida. 

As well as the permanent collections within the museum, the Jewish Museum of Florida also has a number of traveling exhibits, which means you can keep going back and learning something new.
