Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

The Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage introduces visitors to the beauty and diversity of that heritage in the context of the American experience. It promotes an understanding of Jewish history, religion & culture and builds bridges of appreciation, tolerance & understanding.

Activities or mission (Part I)

The Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage is an American story of diversity and tolerance.

  • Core Collection - The Museum features two core exhibitions. An American Story chronicles the immigrant experience, development of Cleveland, Civil Rights Movement, and the Holocaust. The Temple-Tifereth Israel Gallery displays the nationally renowned collection of Judaica from its namesake synagogue. Tours of the collections include the topics of immigration and assimilation, the Holocaust and Civil Rights Movement, Cleveland history, and Jewish faith and traditions. Students in the Cleveland Metropolitan School District also receive free admission, ensuring that cost is never a barrier to experiencing the Museum. As part of its core collection, The Maltz Museum is now home to two interactive biographies, of a Holocaust survivor and of a civil rights activist. Through advanced filming techniques, specialized display technologies, and natural language processing, the experiences of these two upstanders against hate have been preserved in a format that allows audiences to interact with their images as if they were actually present in the same room. For years to come, visitors will see these upstanders in high-definition, hear their voices, absorb their eyewitness accounts of history in the making, and draw inspiration from their courage and commitment to nonviolent change.

    Expenses $1,886,945 · Revenue $94,161

  • Special Exhibitions - The Museum has presented 38 special exhibitions, including 3 in fiscal year 2023, the content of which has varied from Rube Goldberg to Civil Rights to an examination of the life and times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

    Expenses $286,117 · Revenue $12,050

  • Stop the Hate - Every year the Stop the Hate program gives thousands of students across Northeast Ohio a means of understanding and responding to acts of bias and hate in their own communities. Through museum tours, teaching-artist workshops, creative projects, and contests culminating in an awards ceremony, this program targets students in middle and high school, an impressionable age for learning the critical thinking skills and empathy they will need to lead their communities to a more accepting, inclusive future. The Museum prioritizes the needs of students from underserved school districts by providing free transportation and admission to all Stop the Hate workshop participants.

    Expenses $215,883 · Grants $100,000

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
