MAD was the first American art museum to establish a permanent gallery dedicated to the display of both temporary jewelry exhibits and its own contemporary and modern jewelry collection, which it began assembling soon after its founding in 1956. The museum has made a curatorial commitment to art jewelry as part of its mission to explore the connections between art, design, and craft.
