Cara has spent her career with a great passion for art and education, Cara has spent her career dedicated to Jewish education through the arts. Deeply rooted in the Bay Area Jewish community, Cara enjoys local history and telling little-known stories of our incredible community and highlighting the incredible art we have in our midst. In her spare time, you can find Cara exploring the beauty of Marin with her husband Jonathan, son Judah, and giant puppy, Bazzy.

The CJM makes the diversity of the Jewish experience relevant for a twenty-first century audience. We accomplish this through innovative exhibitions and programs that educate, challenge, and inspire.

The Museum’s Daniel Libeskind-designed facility enables and inspires its mission. Dynamic and welcoming, it's a place to experience art, music, film, literature, debate, and—most importantly—people.
