Guided public tour begins at 1pm only.

Founded in 1984, The Zekelman Holocaust Center (The HC) first opened its doors on the campus of the Jewish Community Center in West Bloomfield as the Holocaust Memorial Center and relocated to the current award-winning Farmington Hills building in 2004. $31 million renovation completed in 2024.

The HC is home to not only our core Holocaust museum exhibit, but an extensive research library, archives, special exhibit galleries, and museum shop.

The Holocaust was the systematic, government-run persecution and murder of Europe’s Jews from 1933 to 1945. Using a variety of methods, Nazi Germany, its allies, and collaborators killed some six million Jews — around two-thirds of all European Jews. Antisemitism, the hatred of or prejudice against Jews, was widespread in Europe and was a foundational principle of Nazi ideology.

We must recognize the dignity and humanity of the victims of the Holocaust, so as not to perpetuate the dehumanization and hate that allowed it to happen. Its lessons help us fight injustice today.

Refreshments and conversation afterward to be determined.
