  • Main exhibit was "Degenerate!" about the Nazi attempt to get rid of modern art. Very well done but depressing. Too many echoes of that kind of behavior today.

  • A wonderful, educational exhibit, "Brother Can You Spare a Dime." It was the last day so I'm glad I got there. I also checked out the Museum's ongoing exhibit again that depicts the Jewish experience in Milwaukee as well as across the globe. Of course it's an indescribably sad story, but a story that must be told now and forever. Everyone should experience the exhibit. It's so informative and arranged in sections of the complete story. Every facet of Jewish life is laid out before your eyes with photos and artifacts and stories. It's a wonderful museum. Milwaukee is fortunate to have this.
  • The Jews in Space exhibit was really wonderful - a mix of history of Jewish astronomers, astronauts, and science fiction writers and characters. Some in-depth history, and a nice touch of fun and humor. The heavens are telling the glory of God. Live long and prosper.
