Tel Aviv Museum of Art

Tel Aviv, Israel

The main municipal art museum for Tel Aviv focuses on modern and contemporary art. Check for the changing exhibitions and you might find real gems. The children's wing is great fun and not just for kids. The museum also hosts chamber music and Jazz performances on occasions. In the museum's courtyard you will find the municipal library, with books in Hebrew, English and other languages, and Hebrew newspapers and magazines collection. You can read there, but you’ll need a subscription to borrow. Follow the trail north of the library to get to Golda Meir Center of Performing Arts (or simply: Golda Center). This complex, newly-built, is the home of the Israeli Opera and the Cameri Municipal Theater. Ballet performances and classical music concerts are also held here from time to time.
