First launched in the US in Illinois, the MMOT is based on the Museum of Tolerance (MOT) in Los Angeles, California, the educational arm of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, which challenges visitors to confront bigotry, anti-Semitism and prejudice, and to understand the Holocaust in both historic and contemporary contexts.

The Mobile Museums of Tolerance offer a world-class learning experience, utilizing innovative technology and interactive lessons to bring its message of tolerance directly to schools and communities nationwide. The MMOT aims to inspire people of all ages and backgrounds to promote human dignity by empowering them to raise their voices to combat anti-Semitism, bullying, racism, hate, and intolerance.
Coming in 2024 new buses will add to the growing fleet totaling ten mobile buses in California, New York, Illinois, Florida, Hawaii and Canada.

Empowering Student Knowledge through Educational Workshops!

The MMOT’s 32-seat, wheelchair-accessible vehicle serves as a self-contained classroom, while delivering a field trip experience to its visitors. Led by a licensed educator, the MMOT uses immersive technology and facilitated dialogue to deliver carefully designed workshops that cover topics including anti-Semitism and hate, the lessons of the Holocaust, the Civil Rights movement, and decoding online hate, all taught age-appropriately. MMOT workshops empower participants with knowledge of the dangers of the past in order to create a better future.

Hillside School Curriculum Director

I am so grateful that we had this opportunity and could bring this to our middle school students. Students were able to make connections and say, ‘You know I need to be kind to others and my words matter.’”
