‘Hollywoodland: Jewish Founders and the Making of a Movie Capital’ Exhibit Debuts at the Academy Museum
The Academy Museum is debuting the new exhibit 'Hollywoodland: Jewish Founders and the Making of a Movie Capital' on May 19 in Los Angeles.
That experience comes to life for visitors at the Academy Museum’s new permanent exhibit “Hollywoodland: Jewish Founders and the Making of a Movie Capital,” which opens to the public on Sunday in Los Angeles.
