Description:Edit
Located in a former synagogue that housed Miami Beach's first Jewish congregation, our museum's restored 1936 Art Deco building and 1929 original synagogue are both on the National Register of Historic Places. The 301 building features nearly 80 stained glass windows, a copper dome, marble bimah and many Art Deco features including chandeliers and sconces. The focal point of the museum is our core exhibit: MOSAIC: Jewish Life in Florida, depicting nearly 250 years of Florida Jewish history through photographs and artifacts from all over the state. The stories in our museum about Jews who came from diverse lands and helped develop our state while maintaining their traditions are stories that relate to all visitors.
