Brooklyn Museum director, Jewish board members’ homes vandalized with antisemitic graffiti

 The Brooklyn Museum’s director and a number of its Jewish board members were targeted by antisemitic vandals overnight, multiple Big Apple lawmakers said Wednesday.

Director Anne Pasternak’s home was apparently among those targeted by the vile mob.

Photos being shared widely on social media show a sign taped up outside one building in Brooklyn Heights that screams, “Anne Pasternak Brooklyn Museum White Supremacist Zionist.”

“Disgusting & horrible incident of vandalism happened over night in Brooklyn Heights & other locations affiliated with Bk Museum. This anti-Semitic incident is despicable,” Councilman Lincoln Restler (D-Brooklyn) tweeted, adding that he’d visited one of the scenes early Wednesday.

The Post reached out to the NYPD about the vandalism but didn’t hear back immediately.

When reached by The Post, a spokesperson for the museum only said, “We are deeply troubled by these horrible acts.”
