Jewish life in Maine is a story of people, place, and creativity. It is a story of communities built, traditions carried forward and transformed, art created, and new chapters continually being written.
The Maine Jewish Museum preserves and shares that story while celebrating the creativity that keeps it alive. Through art and historic exhibitions, education, public programs, oral histories, and statewide history and preservation initiatives, we explore the richness and diversity of Jewish life in Maine, past and present.
Our work reaches far beyond the Museum’s walls. MaineJews.org, an initiative of the Maine Jewish Museum, is our statewide digital archive, preserving photographs, documents, oral histories, and stories from Jewish communities throughout Maine and making them accessible to everyone.
Your gift helps us preserve Maine Jewish history, celebrate its creativity, document Jewish life today, and ensure that its stories continue to be told for generations to come.
