Skirball Cultural Center, Cultural center and museum in Los Angeles, United States.
The Skirball Cultural Center operates as a nonprofit institution with exhibition galleries, performance theaters, educational classrooms, outdoor courtyards, and gardens designed by architect Moshe Safdie on North Sepulveda Boulevard.
The center opened in 1996 on a campus in the Santa Monica Mountains, relocating the Skirball Museum originally founded in 1972 at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion to this new facility.
The core exhibition 'Visions and Values: Jewish Life from Antiquity to America' traces over 4,000 years of Jewish history through more than 30,000 artifacts, documents, photographs, and multimedia installations.
The center is open Tuesday through Friday from 12:00 to 17:00 and Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, with wheelchair accessible facilities and admission fees of thirteen dollars for adults.
The Noah's Ark exhibit features life-sized interactive animal sculptures and a rainbow mist installation created by environmental artist Ned Kahn, attracting approximately 60,000 schoolchildren annually for educational programs.
