he Herbert & Eileen Bernard Museum of Judaica presents two exhibitions each year: one in the fall and one in the spring. We also sponsor an annual lecture series in conjunction with the Ivan M. Stettenheim Library. Click on the links below for additional information.| PAST EXHIBITS |
![]() Houses of Life: Jewish Cemeteries of Europe Jewish cemeteries, called “Houses of Life” in Hebrew, remain a vital part of the tapestry of Jewish experience. In Europe, they testify to the changing circumstances, emerging rituals, intense persecution and endless revitalization that accompanied the Jewish migration. In this exhibit, the Bernard Museum of Judaica offers a photographic view of immensely varied Jewish burial grounds across Europe, spanning more than 2,000 years. |
![]() Sanctuary Revealed: The Restoration of an Architectural Icon In December 2006, the Herbert & Eileen Bernard Museum of Judaica created the exhibition Sanctuary Revealed: The Restoration of an Architectural Icon, which features photographs taken by the architects upon the completion of the original construction in 1929, presented in dialogue with corresponding images taken during the course of the recent restoration. |
