In addition to the museum's four spacious galleries, there is also a children's art discovery room, an outdoor sculpture garden, and a permanent collection of 8,000 artifacts.

The diverse collection includes fine and folk art, ethnographic and archaeological artifacts, clothing and textiles, Jewish ceremonial objects, documents, books and manuscripts. The collection's breadth and diversity represents over 2,000 years of the aesthetic sensibilities of Jews living throughout the world, co-existing in multicultural societies.
