Jewish Museum
Art galleryThe Jewish Museum is an art museum on Manhattan's Upper East Side, at Fifth Avenue and 92nd Street, housed in the Felix M. Warburg House, a French Renaissance-style mansion built in 1906 to 1908. Its collection traces to a 1904 donation to the Jewish Theological Seminary and grew to roughly 30,000 objects spanning religious artifacts, fine art, and media, making it one of the largest Jewish art collections outside Israel. Under director Alan Solomon in the 1960s it became known for championing contemporary art, including the 1966 exhibition Primary Structures, credited with helping launch Minimalism. The museum co-founded the New York Jewish Film Festival in 1992 and completed a renovation in October 2025 adding new galleries and learning spaces.
