The JHM, through its collections and programs, promotes understanding of the Jewish people and their presence and contributions to the southern Arizona region. We seek to educate jews and the general public on the history, culture and traditions of the Jewish people, from the Southwest Pioneers to the Jews of contemporary times, by the collection, preservation and teaching of their collective culture and history. For help in preserving or donating your family history and artifacts, or for help in researching your family genealogy, or DNA genealogy, contact the JHM office.
