[Details/Reserve]
Founded in 1904 in New York City, the Jewish Museum was the first institution of its kind in the United States, and currently the oldest in the world. Their holdings include nearly 30,000 objects reflecting global Jewish identity over more than 4,000 years—painting, sculpture, works on paper, photography, installations, media, archaeological artifacts, antiquities, and ceremonial objects. Highlights include works by Man Ray, Eva Hesse, Andy Warhol, Alfred Steiglitz, and Marc Chagall, as well as an 18th century Hanukkah menorah from Germany and a Torah Ark from 1899. Permanent and changing exhibits—and monograph shows of significant artists, for which they are known—are drawn from their collection and outside sources. All floors are accessible for people using mobility aids or who need to avoid stairs. All public restrooms include accessible facilities.

[Details/Reserve]
The New-York Historical Society was established in 1804, making it New York City's first museum. Its current home is one of the last Beaux-Arts style buildings built in the country. Permanent and changing exhibits draw upon the Society's holdings to highlight certain historical themes. The Society's collection contains over 1.6 million works, including art by Thomas Cole, Rembrandt Peale, and Gilbert Stuart, and all 435 of John James Audubon's extant preparatory watercolors for “Birds of America.” Among the institution's holdings are sculptor Elie Nadelman's collection of American folk art; one of the world's largest collections of Tiffany glasswork; George Washington's camp bed from Valley Forge; a collection of US newspapers from the 1700s; and many other important historical objects and artifacts. A relatively recent addition is a space dedicated to an interactive children's history museum. A restaurant and museum shop are on the premises.
