A hidden sanctuary and global museum dedicated to presenting Tibetan art and culture to the tri-state area and the world. Visit us Thurs-Sun from 1pm-5pm The Museum preserves and exhibits the art and culture of Tibet to a world audience. The JMMTA's mission is to present the art, culture and history of Tibet to a world audience in order to educate and inspire appreciation of Himalayan cultures and to foster better global understanding. The founder, Jacques Marchais (1887-1948), a remarkable American woman and early 20th century collector, intended the Museum to serve as a bridge between Tibetan art and culture and the West. The JMMTA preserves its unique collection of rare and sacred artifacts and provide careful stewardship of its historic buildings and gardens. It is the intention of the museum to give visitors an understanding the Himalayan region. The museum replicates the monasteries of Tibet while it contains artifacts, that art, history, culture and religious articles that have been destroyed in their homeland.
