This is Temple Beth Abraham's 4th Annual Living Museum Exhibition in conjunction with a live museum at the Temple on Sunday March 10, 2013.

We began by visiting the Museum of Jewish Heritage. The students had a class led by excellent and engaging volunteer docents where they learned how to accept, identify, describe, photograph, research, categorize, credit, catalog and display objects. Following this visit the students brought their own precious family objects in to be photographed. Then they cataloged them, and in conversations with their family learned about their history, and the significance of the artifact to their family.

The results are now live on the Museum website. It is our pleasure to be able to exhibit them for you to enjoy.

It is our hope that our students will continue to explore their family history and traditions through heirlooms, and continue to have strong connections to their past, and be a conduit to the future.
