The Contemporary Jewish Museum, founded in 1984 and based in San Francisco, operates as a non-collecting museum that partners with national and international cultural institutions to present exhibitions. Its programs seek to illuminate the diversity of the Jewish experience for a 21st-century audience through exhibitions and related activities that educate, challenge, and inspire. In the broader museum and cultural sector, CJM grounds its work in dialogue and shared experiences through the arts. A notable recent development is the November 2023 launch of the Marilyn Yolles Waldman Distinguished Speaker Series, with events planned for January 2024. The museum has also been recognized for excellence in museum education, receiving the 2022 California Association of Museums Superintendent’s Award.
