The focus of the Museum is to interpret the universal themes of tolerance, respect,
responsible citizenship, human dignity, and community-building through the
Jewish experience.
The Ida Pearle and Joseph Cuba Community Archives house several collections
pertaining to American Jewish relief efforts for Jews in Nazi-occupied Europe, for
instance the records of the Georgia Farm School and Resettlement Bureau, 1936-
1948, and relevant sections of the Jewish Educational Loan Fund records. Also
available are the personal papers of Harold Hirsch, president of the Atlanta
Committee for German-Jewish relief (related to the AJJDC) from 1933-1936.
Finally, there is a small collection of yizkor books.
