Oregon Jewish Museum

Oregon Jewish Museum, Jewish history and Holocaust education museum in Portland, United States

The Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education occupies a 15,000-square-foot building at 724 NW Davis Street, a former commercial film building remodeled before the museum opened there in June 2017. Its core exhibitions include Discrimination and Resistance, An Oregon Primer; Oregon Jewish Stories; and The Holocaust, An Oregon Perspective.

The museum began in 1989 when Rabbi Joshua Stampfer invited Portland's Jewish community to his synagogue to plan the first Jewish museum in the Pacific Northwest. In 1996 it merged with the Jewish History Society of Oregon, acquiring archives dating from 1850. After moving between several Northwest Portland sites, it opened at 724 NW Davis Street in June 2017.

The museum displays how Jewish communities lived in Oregon and the roles they played in regional society. Exhibitions share personal stories of people who overcame discrimination and contributed to the cultural life of the area.

The museum is located in the North Park Blocks and is easily accessible on foot, with adequate parking nearby. Opening hours are limited, so check the website before visiting to make sure it is open.

The museum began in 1989 when Rabbi Joshua Stampfer invited Portland's Jewish community to his synagogue to discuss creating the first Jewish museum in the Pacific Northwest. Early exhibitions, such as The Jews of Greece and In the Footsteps of Columbus, were held in borrowed spaces including the Central Library, galleries and synagogues before the museum had a building of its own.
