The mission of the Children's Galleries for Jewish Culture is to engage school age children and accompanying adults in the exploration of history and culture through interactive exhibitions for children and related educational programs.

CGJC is committed to:

  • presenting history and culture in non-threatening and inclusive ways, to benefit the diverse Jewish community and the community at large
  • fostering in children of all backgrounds a positive and relevant attitude to Jewish heritage
  • creating environments for learning that are aesthetic, stimulating, enjoyable, visually engaging and respectable
  • drawing on the intellectual and creative potential of children in developing age-appropriate exhibitions and programs
  • creating an experience of learning through hands-on problem solving
  • enhancing classroom education
  • augmenting the work of other educational and cultural institutions, and complementing existing resources of the community.
