Since its inception in 1976, the Shop has provided a showcase for artists throughout the world and a forum for artistic change. Just as the ritual of bar/bat mitzvah symbolizes the continuity of tradition handed down from one generation to the next, so do the artists and their works reflect the renewed vitality of American Jewish life today.
Your purchase from the Museum Shop will help support the National Museum of American Jewish History.

Established in 1976, and situated on Philadelphia's Independence Mall, the National Museum of American Jewish History is the only Museum in the nation dedicated exclusively to exploring and interpreting the American Jewish experience. In November, 2010, NMAJH will open its new 100,000-square-foot home featuring three floors of core exhibition space. The core exhibition will explore more than 350 years of American Jewish history through the use of evocative objects, telling moments and state-of-the-art interactive technologies.
