Holocaust Center
Receives $1 Million
Renovation Grant
The Zekelman Holocaust
Center has been awarded $1
million from the Conference
on Jewish Material Claims
Against Germany toward
fabrication expenses of the
Center’s core exhibit, which
will be undergoing a com-
plete renovation starting in
June 2023.

The update will be the
first since the Center moved
to its permanent home in
Farmington Hills in 2004. The
new exhibit will center on
Michigan survivor voices in
its telling of one of the most
horrific events in world histo-
ry, utilizing updated historical
information, cutting-edge
technology and modern
museum design, media and
lighting.
Tours will align with best
practices in museum and
Holocaust education. Visitors
will learn about pre-war
Jewish life, the onset of World
War II, and the liberation
of the concentration camps
through information, tes-
timonies and artifacts that
summon inquiry and contem-
plation to help guests draw
meaning from their visit.


As the population of
Holocaust survivors dwindles,
we must find a way for future
generations to continue to
connect to their experiences,

said Rabbi Eli Mayerfeld,
CEO, The Zekelman
Holocaust Center.
“Our new exhibit elevates
our local survivors’ stories for
perpetuity, and ensures they
have the first and last word
as visitors move through our
exhibit. Thanks to this gener-
ous grant, we can accomplish
this goal, and position our-
selves as a 21st-century leader
in Holocaust education.”
