Visit the Museum

Now Free for All Students

“The experience in the Museum made me more knowledgeable about the past. As a result, it passes on the message of not letting something like the Holocaust happen again. There is hope for the future.” – eighth-grade student

We invite school groups to join the 60,000 other students from public, private, parochial, and Jewish schools who visit the Museum each year.

Our tours and programs for school groups align with Common Core Standards and are adapted to meet the specific needs, interests, and backgrounds of various student groups.
