For a quarter-century, MAD About Jewelry has championed jewelry as a vital contemporary art form. MAD remains the only American museum with a gallery dedicated exclusively to jewelry exhibitions and a growing collection of modern and contemporary art jewelry. We proudly honor our global artist community—whose talent makes this event one-of-a-kind.
