About PMJA

The Philadelphia Museum of Jewish Art, located within Rodeph Shalom is dedicated to exhibiting contemporary art that illuminates the Jewish experience. The PMJA was founded in honor of the late philanthropist Jacob S. Gutman in 1975. In addition to its special-exhibit gallery, the Museum features a permanent collection of important works by accomplished artists, including William Anastasi, Chaim Gross, Tobi Kahn, Joan Snyder, Shelley Spector, Boaz Vaadia and Roman Vishniac. The PMJA is a vital and engaging part of the RS Community.

We are grateful for the past 40 years of leadership of Joan C. Sall, Director Emeritus; Wendi Furman, Curator Emeritus; along with past Co-Chairs Gail Rosenberg and Janeane Sloane. We invite any RS member interested in the PMJA Committee to contact Robin Blumenfeld at rswitzenbaum@gmail.com.
