Mizel Museum

Mizel Museum

An idea either evolves or goes away. But what began 30 years ago in a display case at BMH-BJ Congregation in Denver has transcended space, time and self-definition, and even gained significance, to remain relevant.

Founded by Rabbi Stanley Wagner and local philanthropists Carol and Larry A. Mizel, the Mizel Museum of Judaica enabled all people to appreciate Jewish culture and explore Jewish life in Colorado. When its doors opened, the museum dedicated itself to the broad diversity of Jewish life through art, architecture, archeology, ritual and customs through the Diaspora. It curated its own exhibitions and programs, as well as brining in others from Jewish museums throughout the US.
