"The governor is defeating
his stated objectives in edu-
cation by cutting our funds,"
said Rabbi Charles Rosenz-
weig, director of the West
Bloomfield HMC, which last
year hosted about 150,000
visitors. Of those visitors,
86,000 were students. "It is
the state's place to con-
tribute because an educa-
-• tional institution is of first
order.
"This is mind boggling. It
is shocking," Rabbi Rosenz-
weig said. "We will lobby
the governor and the
legislature in an attempt to
convince him that this mu-
seum is different."
Rabbi Rosenzweig said he
and some HIVIC board mem-
bers will travel to Lansing
next month for a scheduled
meeting with key Repub-
licans close to the Engler
administration.
Legislators have 30 days to
review Gov. Engler's budget.
If approved, Michigan would
be the only state in the coun-
try without government-
supported arts programs.
"This proposal will have
the effect of choking our
numerous organizations and
institutions to a certain
death," said Sen. Jack Fax-
on, D-Farmington
Hills. "The governor has
fulfilled his promise to the
citizens of Michigan to
bankrupt our cultural
heritage." Rep. Maxine
Berman, D-Southfield, said
she was disturbed by all of
the governor's proposed
cultural arts budget slashes.
She said the HMC cuts,
however, were most per-
sonal.
"This is adding insult to
injury," Ms. Berman said.
"If he wants to be the edu-
cation governor, he must
realize that education also
can take place elsewhere
besides the schools."
The museum, which also
houses a research library,
has never implemented a fee
structure. In the past, the
HMC board has voted not to
charge entrance fees, but
Rabbi Rosenzweig said the
board may be forced to
reconsider that option.
Rabbi Rosenzweig said he
does not expect to lay off any
of the HMC's 11 staff mem-
bers.
"We are in trouble," Rabbi
Rosenzweig said. "We don't
like to think we won't get
the money. But if we don't,
we will need to appeal to the
people.
"I do think it would be a
disaster to charge a fee," he
said.. "We are anxious to
have this open to everyone
because the lessons of the
Holocaust are so important
for children and adults. To
have an entrance fee would
destroy the objective of this
educational institution."
HMC, which opened as a
museum and research center
in 1984 on the grounds of the
Maple-Drake Jewish Com-
munity Center, was built
with $7 million in private
funds. Today, the museum
raises money from annual
dinners which net about
$150,000, contributors, and
from its 2,200 members.
Membership fees range from
$100 to $1,000 a year.
Local Holocaust survivors
were angry at Mr. Engler's
plan.
"We can't just snap our
fingers and replace the
money," said HMC exec-
utive committee member
"We can't just snap
our fingers and
replace the
money."

Alex Ehrmann. "But we will
find ways. We don't intend
to cut back on programm-
ing."
HMC Vice President Sol
Waldman said cutting state
funds from the HMC is a
mistake.
"If the state does make the
cuts, people at the Holocaust
Center will need to be more
dedicated to make up the
funds through private dona-
tions. It would defeat our
purpose to charge a fee.
"We want everyone to see
it," Mr. Waldman said. "We
want everyone to re-
member."
The HMC already lost
$13,000 from the Michigan
Council for the Arts when
Mr. Engler froze these funds.
The monies were to help pay
for the December production
of Brundibar, a children's
opera written in
Thereisenstadt, a death in
Czechoslovakia. It was per-
formed at Temple Israel and
at Wayne State.
"This institution is known
throughout the world and
everybody is trying to copy
it," said HMC board member
Abe Pasternak. "The gover-
nor shouldn't do this. He
should change his mind.
How can he cut down on
such a center?" ❑
