These courses focus on looking closely at works of art and are ideal for anyone wishing to learn more about the Jewish Museum’s unique collections and exhibitions. Each tour is led by a Jewish Museum educator and will take place over Zoom.

Listen to a talk by Jonathan Kaufman, author of The Last Kings of Shanghai, which details the extraordinary story of the Sassoon and Kadoorie families who stood astride China’s business, politics, and economy for 175 years. This talk is presented in conjunction with the exhibition The Sassoons.

Consider how art can be used to address challenging issues such as antisemitism, racism, and other forms of prejudice and bias. In this full-day workshop, educators will view a short documentary film and engage in discussions around works of art by Trenton Doyle Hancock, Kehinde Wiley, and more. Participants will also respond to contemporary issues through art and writing activities.

During this one-day camp at the Jewish Museum, students from grades 6 through 8 will explore documentary film, storytelling, art, and identity.

Visitors with intellectual or developmental disabilities and their families are invited to explore the exhibition After “The Wild”: Contemporary Art from the Barnett and Annalee Newman Foundation Collection through discussion and art making.
