Bergen Museum Of Art And Science
Mission:
To participate in the community quality of life by bringing world class exhibits and programs to the public. The Museum also recognizes that Bergen County is a combination of many distinct cultures, a reflection of great cultural diversity. The Bergen Museum continues to explore the region's roots and identity by promoting its regional artists through our Exhibitions, Bergen Music & Art Festival, juried shows, Youth Art Gallery, Music programs, Holocaust Yom Hashoah Remembrance, visual arts and science programs. The Museum's education outreach programs bring educational programs to the public.
About Us:
The Bergen Museum of Art & Science is proud to announce that we are the recent recipients of a Puffin Foundation Grant for the Arts. Once again, we want to thank the Puffin Foundation for making this possible.
In 1956 a new museum was formed to provide a center for the purpose of stimulating youth and adult interest in the arts and sciences. The founding board of directors opened a location on Fort Lee Road in Teaneck. In 1969, the Museum moved to the location at East Ridgewood and Fairview Avenues in Paramus. The Museum's trustees have relocated the Museum to the lower level of the Bergen Mall, Paramus, NJ. The Museum is incorporated as 501 (c) 3 not-for-profit organization.
