he Birmingham Museum and the Oakland County Historical Society kicked off Black History Month with a lecture on freedom seeker and abolitionist John Sella Martin Jan. 13 at the Southfield Public Library.

“The Underground Railroad in Southfield and the Extraordinary Story of John Sella Martin” was the first in a yearlong series sponsored by the Oakland County Historical Society in celebration of its 150th anniversary in 2024.

The story of Martin also tied into a five-community research project on the Underground Railroad in Oakland County led by the Birmingham Museum and funded by a grant from the Michigan Council for the Humanities, an affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. The project involves volunteer-based teams in Birmingham, Farmington, Royal Oak, Pontiac and Southfield researching connections to the Underground Railroad in Oakland County communities.

“The goal is to bring awareness of stories of both abolitionists and Photo (above) by Patricia O’Blenes / photo (top) provided by Joy Young formerly enslaved freedom seekers to the public,” Leslie Pielack, the BirABOVE: Just footsteps away from where Joy Young gave a presentation on the life of John Sella Martin stands the former Covenanter mingham Museum director and the research project director, stated in Church, now known as Southfield Reformed Presbyterian, where Martin sought freedom through the Underground Railroad with the a press release. “Sharing documented evidence with educators, students, BY his KRISTYNE E.

SOUTHFIELD — The City Council unanimously approved an agreement Jan. 29 with Lawrence Technological University for an art installation called The Key. The sculpture was designed by artists Erik and Israel Nordin, the founders of the Detroit Design Center who created the Detroit Menorah, as well as One World…Under Michigan Stars on Belle Isle.

Terry Croad, Southfield’s director of planning, told the council that the piece is expected

to be around 14 to 16 feet tall, with a berm about 6 to 8 feet above the road grade along the multi-use pathway on the west side of the southbound Northwestern Highway service drive, at the corner with West 10 Mile Road, near LTU’s Blue Devils Stadium.

The Southfield City Centre — which is an advisory board for a Special Assessment District to make infrastructure improvements, hire consultants, foster economic development, and provide events to attract and retain residents, employees and visitors to the City Centre District — has pledged $42,000 for the sculpture See ART on page 8A

Renovation of core exhibit at Zekelman Holocaust Center completed

BY MARK VEST

Aside from hearing and viewing stories of Holocaust survivors, visitors to the Zekelman Holocaust Center can also view artifacts.

The center recently held a grand re-opening event.

mvest@candgnews.com

FARMINGTON HILLS — The Zekelman Holocaust Center has taken a major step toward ensuring that the voices of local Holocaust survivors will continue to be heard with a recently completed renovation project.

Zekelman, which is the only Holocaust center in Michigan, had a grand re-opening of its core exhibit Jan. 28.

The center has provided Holocaust education at its current location in Farmington Hills since 2004.

Renovation began at the facility last May, with the center undergoing a comprehensive $31 million “transformation,” according to a press release.

“The entire exhibit is fully redesigned from the ground up,” said Mark Mulder, the director of curatorial affairs at the Zekelman Holocaust Center. “In terms of what’s new that you’ll see, other than everything, is the concentrated focus on Michigan survivor stories especially, but not exclusively, and a more integrated use of media and images.”

Expert offers advice to those who overspent during the holidays

BY MARK VEST mvest@candgnews.com

FARMINGTON HILLS — For many people, the holiday season and birthdays are a mixed bag.

While a lot of enjoyment can come from giving and getting gifts, the giving part can come with a big price tag.

For those who may be feeling the pinch after helping to spread some joy to others, there is help available to potentially ease the pain.

GreenPath Financial Wellness, based in Farmington Hills, is a nonprofit organization that offers free one-on-one financial counseling.

With December being a big month for holiday spending, the nonprofit is accustomed to having people reach out for assistance in the new year.

“Our phones start ringing off the hook in January every year, and this year has been no different,” said Amber Miller, who is a partner experience manager at GreenPath. “We do know call volume has been even higher this January than it was last January.”

According to Miller, after spending large See SPENDING on page 9A

Road Commission to host public information meeting about 12 Mile Road SOUTHFIELD — The Road Commission for Oakland County and the city of Southfield will host a public information meeting about the 2024 resurfacing of 12 Mile Road from Telegraph Road to Northwestern Highway 4:30-7 p.m. Feb. 15 at Adlai Stevenson Elementary School, 27777 Lahser Road. The meeting will be in an open-house format, with no formal presentations. Road Commission staff will be present to address questions from residents throughout the meeting.

The $4.4 million construction project is funded mostly by federal funds and contributions from the Road Commission, the city of Southfield and Oakland County. The project includes: • Removing existing pavement and resurfacing with two layers of asphalt.

• Replacing two culverts under the road with concrete culverts.

• Repairing curbs and gutters.

• Installing Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant crosswalks.

• Upgrading SMART bus stops within the project limits.

• Modernizing traffic signals at the Franklin Road/12 Mile Road intersection, the Case Avenue/12 Mile Road intersection, the Dufty Street/12 Mile Road intersection and the Lockdale Street/12 Mile Road intersection.

The utility relocation and tree removal work is expected to begin in the winter and spring of 2024, with construction expected to start in the late summer and conclude this fall. There will be two-way traffic during most of the project, with separate weekend closures to remove and replace the two File photo by Patricia O’Blenes culverts under the road. During the weekend closures, the detour route will be 12 Mile Road to Inkster Road to Telegraph Road, back to 12 Mile Road, and vice versa.

The closure dates will be announced. DTE Energy is expected to conduct an unrelated underground utility upgrade project along this section of 12 Mile Road that will result in a closure of the same section of eastbound 12 Mile Road for up to six weeks in the spring prior to the start of the Road Commission’s project.

History in a Box: The Shoebox Legacy

History is on display at the Southfield Pavilion

Until 1965, Jim Crow laws made travel extremely difficult and dangerous for Black Americans in the south. Blacks were refused service in restaurants, rest areas and public transportation such as buses and trains.

In order to nourish themselves and loved ones while traveling in the south, women prepared meals packed in old shoeboxes.

As a way of commemorating the resolve and resourcefulness of black travel-

ers during segregated times, we created a modern-day lunch shoebox adorned with inspirational stories of trailblazing Americans.

If you’re planning an event for your company, communtiy or classroom, our shoeboxes make the perfect lunch and learn.

The new exhibit was part of a collaboration with the Ralph Appelbaum Associates design firm.

According to Mulder, the previous exhibit primarily relied on didactics, which is primarily intended to be an instructive approach.

The new exhibit uses archival footage, images, artifacts and interactive videos featuring survivor testimony in order to let those who experienced the Holocaust be the central focus of the exhibit.

Mulder explained the primary difference between the new exhibit and the previous one that relied more heavily on didactics.

“Instead, we’re giving the same information by telling people’s stories,” he said.

“So, rather than, ‘This happened,’ it was, ‘This is what it was like when that happened to me.’”

Local resident Sophie Tajch Klisman is a Holocaust survivor, and her testimony is part of the new exhibit.

According to Tajch Klisman’s daughter, West Bloomfield resident Lori Ellis, her mom was interviewed on the grounds

and a U.S. Army liberator,” Ellis said. “So it’s there forever now at the museum.”

Ellis shared details about how her mom felt seeing her words in quotes and seeing a kiosk that provides information about her liberation.

“She was grateful that the museum is showing more coverage of local survivor testimonies so their legacy can live on forever,” Ellis stated via email. “She felt with her exhibits it did not convey the horror, pain and suffering that she and her family went through. She stated she trusts that the museum is still keeping that memory alive. … Her kiosk shared a happy time when she was liberated or given a second chance of life.”

According to the release, there was an urgency on the part of the Zekelman Holocaust Center to ensure that the stories and experiences of Holocaust survivors remain accessible to future generations, with the center recognizing the importance of adapting.

“The greatest differentiating factor between the original and the new exhibit is the centering of the voices of those who experienced the Holocaust,” Zekelman CEO Eli Mayerfeld stated in the release.

“Throughout the exhibit, visitors will hear

of the Zekelman Holocaust Center last year.

“Since they renovated, their focus is more on local survivors,” Ellis said.

“When you enter, there’s this huge wall with my mom’s quote of what her life was like prior to the war. So when people walk into the exhibit, they want (them) to get a feel for what the whole person was like, not just their experience in the camps and during World War II.” By touching the button of a kiosk, visitors can also hear part of Tajch Klisman’s story.

“You can see and hear her talking about her liberation, and part of it flashes to one of her liberators, Doug Harvey. He was part of the U.S. 84th Infantry who came to liberate the survivors in (a) concentration camp in Germany,” Ellis said.

“They were together last year filming this by the Anne Frank tree outside, and they were pleased with how the interview went, so they wanted to, I guess, memorialize it, and my mother was thrilled that it will be there forever, and her story will live on.”

The fact that Harvey and her mom were filmed together makes the exhibit all the more impactful for Ellis.

and a collaboration between the Bureau of Fire Services, the State Fire Marshal’s Office and MI Prevention.

Southfield Fire Chief Johnny Menifee explained that SmartBurners provide another layer of safety to cooking. The burners are built for electric coil stoves and have a built-in thermostat that prevents the stovetop from reaching fire-causing temperatures. According to a press release from LARA, SmartBurners have been installed in more than 250,000 housing units across North America, without a single cooking fire being reported when they are in use.

“Currently, cooking fires are the leading cause of household fires nationally. And when you add that to an aging population, the risk of injury and death only increases,” Menifee stated. “We picked the Woodridge Apartments because of the units and the uniqueness … there.” He said that between 2019 and 2023, 13 cooking fires resulted in eight civilian and two firefighter injuries at Woodbridge. He explained that in the same four-year span, the Fire Department responded to 165 cooking fires in the city at large.

State Fire Marshal Kevin Sehlmeyer said that as the SmartBurners were being installed, a resident came in with her groceries and told them she didn’t want her burners replaced because she cooks bacon daily. A SmartBurner company representative told her to try cooking her bacon on the SmartBurner while they moved down the hall to install more burners.

He said that the next day, when they were finishing the installations, the same resident went down the hallway to tell them that it was the best her bacon had ever been cooked.

“What we found out in that building there is that those folks do a lot of cooking,” Sehlmeyer said. “They like to cook. This device looks like a cast-iron frying pan. So that’s what actually takes the place of the coil. And it does have cast iron, and it heats the food more evenly.”

Menifee explained that normal coils get up to around 1,650 degrees Fahrenheit, which is hot enough to melt aluminum, and that most cooking oils will auto-ignite at just over 700 degrees Fahrenheit. The SmartBurners have temperature controls in them that don’t allow them to get above the range where elements can self-ignite.

Menifee stated that the installation process for the SmartBurners is “that simple.” Unplug the old burners and then plug in the new ones, and the longest part is the seasoning period, where the burners run on high for seven to 15 minutes to season the coating. Menifee added that there’s a smell that comes with the seasoning step, but it dissipates quickly.

Mayor Ken Siver attended the installation of the SmartBurners as the board president of the Southfield Non-Profit Housing Corp., founded in 1973 with the mission of “providing comfortable spaces for everyone in our city.” According to SNHC’s website, it “maintains quality communities for seniors, the disabled and eligible families.” The SNHC owns the Woodridge Apartments.

“We’re very grateful to Fire Chief Johnny Menifee for securing this grant from the state.

Our hope is to install these at McDonnell Tower and River Park Place,” Siver said. “So we’re going to look for grants, or if we’re not successful, budget it as a capital improvement in the years ahead.”

Menifee said he’s looking to install one in his mother’s home. “I think this is a worthwhile product to look at that we can lower the risk, especially with our aging community that still want to have the ability to live on their own. This is another great safety feature that you can add to help keep a loved one safe.”

He added that the Fire Department will continue to monitor Woodridge Apartments to see how effective the SmartBurners are at fire prevention. He explained that it is also important to replace the batteries in carbon monoxide detectors and to always contact the Fire Department for a fire emergency rather than attempt to fight a fire on your own.

amounts of money, a question that residents may ask is, “What do I do now?”

Her advice doesn’t begin with sharing financial strategies.

“First of all, know you’re not alone.

Take a deep breath; what’s done is done — we can’t go back to Dec. 1 now,” Miller said.

“It’s about coming up with a plan moving forward, spending some time getting a clear picture of where you’re at.”

Miller suggests that people check their statements and list the balances that they owe.

“This is not always fun, but it is really important to get a clear picture of where things are at so you can figure out what the next step looks like,” she said. “Take a look at your budget bin. Do you have some extra cash flow that could go towards maybe getting the debts paid off quicker? Are there opportunities to maybe bring in a little bit of extra cash temporarily, or some things laying around the house that might be able to be sold to put that extra cash towards these balances? And then come up with a strategy.”

One of those strategies can be to reach out to people who make it their business to come up with debt-management solutions.

“If you’re looking at your budget and you’re like, ‘I don’t have much wiggle room,’ maybe get creative, and that’s where reaching out to an organization like GreenPath can help,” Miller said. “We specialize in looking at your situation with you and helping you understand a variety of different options that may make sense. As a nonprofit agency, we offer what’s called a debt management plan that not a lot of people know about, and it can be a good option for getting high-interest

credit cards paid down by working directly with creditors to get lower interest rates and better terms, get those balances paid in full, but to do that more manageably without having those high-interest rates making it difficult to get progress on getting those balances paid off.”

Knowing that holidays and birthdays are coming in advance gives people ample opportunity to help prepare to budget for them, Miller said. She is not aware of any sound financial goals that don’t come back to having a budget plan, and birthdays and holidays are one example of how such a plan can be carried out.

“The next holiday season is 10, 11 months away now from starting, so if you can get your budget to a spot where you can start tucking money back now, on a little bit of a smaller basis — if you can tuck $100 away now for the next 10 months — instead of having to come up with $1,000 in December, that’s a way that can really set you up for success,” Miller said. “Of course that’s easier said than done if you’re trying to get last holiday season’s debt paid off, but that’s something. If you get a tax refund coming up, maybe this is an opportunity to either get that debt paid off a little quicker or start building that savings to prepare for next year. … I know there’s a lot of temptations to spend, and a lot of unexpected things during the holiday season, but try to enter that season with a clear plan — ‘Here’s my budget. Here’s what I want to spend.’”

After determining what a holiday budget looks like, one suggestion Miller offered is to withdraw cash and put it into an envelope, with a specific amount of cash designated per person.

“When I’m buying gifts, that cash comes out, and when the cash is gone, I know I’m See SPENDING on page 11A

piece and we loved it. It will be very visible at the intersection of 10 Mile Road, Evergreen Road, the Lodge Freeway.”

Erik Nordin stated that The Key is part of the Nordin brothers’ “grid series” and was inspired by a topographical view of a city, “the way we arrange our streets, buildings and roads, we create an aesthetic bonding.” He said that together, “they are the building blocks of a neighborhood. The focal point of The Key symbolizes the Southfield City Centre. Community is the key to prosperity. The Key is an echo of a respected, well-designed city, conveying its energy to all.”

Croad said at the Jan. 29 council meeting that The Key is not the only piece that the city will install by the Nordin brothers.

“Our next piece is the Brothers, which is also stainless, curvy steel and blown glass that was developed by the Detroit Design Center.

And I should mention that they approached us quite some time ago when they saw the amount of investment in art in this community. And they’re giving us kind of a two-forone deal on the art,” Croad said.

He added that the Southfield Public Arts Commission is funding the Brothers piece, which is proposed to go at the southeast corner of Nine Mile Road and Beech Road, on the fire station property, 18400 W. Nine Mile Road.

Erik Nordin said that Brothers draws inspiration from family and siblings, which is fitting as two brothers designed it.

It conveys “how we grow alongside one another on different paths, but from the same place,” he said. “Each member of a family is unique and complements one another — through love and support, they help each other grow and change. This is the essence of family and the beauty of Brothers. The larger section of the sculpture of the base symbolizes the family, and the branches above the siblings.”

Mayor Ken Siver said both pieces by the Nordin brothers will begin installation this spring.

Siver said the Friends of the Southfield Public Arts Commission have been raising funds for Nine Mile art installations through donations and grants.

“At this time, the Friends have raised about $318,000 for this piece by a renowned Mexican artist, Sebastian, who has work all over the world, but nothing in the Midwest,” he said of a sculpture titled Nine Mile Crossing, which will stand 98 feet tall at the corner of Southfield Freeway and Nine Mile Road, thanks to the cooperation and support of Tarik Dinha and Nine Mile Crossing LLC. “We love red,” Siver joked, because the new piece will be red like the Red Pole Park, which was erected in 2018.

Siver discovered Sebastian’s (Enrique Carbajal’s) work while visiting San Antonio, Texas.

He said that he was “overwhelmed by how magnificent” Sebastian’s work is.

With the installation of these new pieces, Southfield is nearing 30 public art installations thanks to the Friends of Southfield Public Arts Commission, a nonprofit dedicated to raising funds to support the efforts of the Southfield Public Arts Commission to “advocate for, promote and participate in the establishment, selection and installation of public artwork in the City, with City Council approval, to serve the public interest, welfare, convenience, and enjoyment through the promotion of the arts in the City of Southfield.”

Siver explained that the Southfield Public Arts Commission joined the efforts of the Nine Mile corridor revitalization initiative, a grant-funded public improvement project supported by Farmington, Farmington Hills, Ferndale, Hazel Park, Oak Park and Southfield, which will create a 10-foot-wide pathway between the communities to encourage connectivity, placemaking and recreation along Nine Mile Road.

Siver said that a piece of the corridor, Evergreen to Prescott, was completed last year, and another section of it will be built this spring, from Prescott to Lahser.

“This will be a continuous pathway all along Nine Mile, from I-75 in Hazel Park to I-275 in Farmington Hills,” he said. “We’re encouraging walking and biking, and these are 10-foot-wide pathways. So the Friends is joining this effort, and we’re raising funds for public art on Nine Mile. We’ve looked at many artists’ work, and I introduced Sebastian to the art commission. They love his work, so we set out on a fundraising campaign.”

The funding of Nine Mile Crossing has raised around $320,000 of a $340,000 goal.

Delores Flagg, the chair for the commission and a former Southfield Public Schools art instructor, expressed her enthusiasm for the new art installations in the city.

“We know that art has an impact, and, like, I have to use my little grandson as an example: You know, he’s saving his money.

He saved $5 one week, then $10 the next.

And then he’s moving on up, you know; you’re not thrilled at first, but then all of a sudden, you get to $100, and you start feeling great about it. So about the art pieces, one piece, OK. Two pieces, and then all of a sudden, all these pieces are coming together to make a statement,” she said.

Miller said that according to data compiled by the National Retail Federation, holiday sales in 2023 increased by 3.8% to $964.4 billion.

While she understands that doesn’t necessarily speak to overspending, she did share a tip for how people can avoid spending more than they might want to in the first place. “(Have) that mental dialogue with yourself of like, ‘If I make this decision now, what is this going to look like for me next month, next year? Is this decision, spending on this, worth the extra stress, the extra money I’m going to be paying to get this paid off?’ Just kind of have that cause-and-effect conversation, almost, with yourself of thinking not just in the immediate present situation, but thinking about what the long-term effects of this might be and using that to kind of frame that decision-making a little bit more with that bigger picture,” Miller said.

Miller shared some words of encouragement for those whose bank account took a hit after the holiday season.

“I think the biggest point here is … letting them know that they don’t have to navigate

and families will cast light on the little-known history of the anti-slavery movement in our area. We all benefit when we have more of the whole picture.”

A traveling exhibit and interactive website funded by the grant is set to launch later this month. Early stages of research unveiled nearly two dozen documented freedom seekers and abolitionists. The traveling exhibit was on display at the Southfield Public Library for the presentation on Martin and will be traveling around southern Oakland County to be featured in libraries and public buildings for two months at a time where the public can see it free of charge.

The lecture opened with a proclamation presented by Oakland County Commissioners Penny Luebs, Gwen Markham, Kristen Nelson, Yolanda Smith Charles and Linnie Taylor in acknowledgment of the Oakland County Underground Railroad Public History Project.

Joy Young, a Birmingham Museum genealogy researcher and cultural consultant, became interested in the project while it was on tour through West Bloomfield, where she lives. Young said that her jaw was on the floor at the Birmingham Museum, and she could not believe the history that unfolded in her community. After reading about Martin, she became fascinated by his life and shared that she was surprised that she had never heard his story before. Young began researching and uncovering more about Martin’s life and legacy.

She is currently working on a book illustrating the significance of his life’s work.

“From my research, I found out he was a man of faith: a pastor, an abolitionist, a leader, a statesman, a civil servant, an orator, a family man, a politician, and an editor who taught himself to read and write. He was an overcomer. He was a dreamer of freedom for himself and others in slavery. He was a revolutionary and a free thinker, well-read and sociable. He showed great courage in his pursuits, and many think he was handsome,” Young said in the presentation. “John Sella Martin, though small in stature at 5 feet 8 1/2 inches, was a giant of a man during the time of slavery, the Civil War and reconstruction. With all of these accolades, he was not perfect, which you shall see. And though he overcame much sorrow and difficulty, his life ended tragically and too soon.”

Young led the presentation on Martin and expressed her desire for people to know his story as an integral part of African American and world history. She informed the attendees that they were just mere footsteps away from the spot where Martin sought freedom through the Underground Railroad at Covenanter Church, now known as Southfield Reformed Presbyterian, with the help of abolitionist minister James S.T. Milligan, who housed Martin for six weeks

cago, John Sella Martin left his mark on not just African American history, but American and world history,” Young said. “This man accomplished a lion’s share of achievement that benefited Black Americans and Americans over the last 147 years.”

in 1857. After Martin’s time in Southfield, he became a world-renowned Baptist minister, traveling to England and Scotland, where he was considered one of the most influential abolitionists against American slavery.

During her presentation, Young detailed the life of Martin, stating that he was born in 1832 in North Carolina into slavery and was the result of a relationship forced upon his mother, Winnifred — Mrs. Henderson forced Winnifred into a relationship with her nephew as a way to distract him from having relationships with other wealthy white women until his marriage to a white heiress. The relationship resulted in two children, Martin and his older sister, Caroline. Around the time Martin was 7 years old, his family was sold by Mrs. Henderson to a slave trader, which led them to Georgia. When he was around 10 years old, he, his mother and his sister were separated when their enslaver sold them to settle a debt.

Martin would go on to be bought and sold at least 11 times. At one point enslaved by a man named Mr. Powers, he worked as an errand boy for gamblers. He heard rumors of African Americans living as free people in the north and in Canada. He became passionate about freedom and took it upon himself to learn to read and write. When he was 17 years old, he learned where his mother was and tried to get her to escape her enslaver, who was known for his cruelty. He visited her and watched as her captor ruthlessly beat her. Because of that visit, Martin would spend seven months in jail for running away. In his autobiography, he described this time as “the most valuable months” of his life because he met a man from the north who taught him about grammar, history, arithmetic and geography, and gave him instructions on how to reach the north.

A year later, when Mr. Powers died, Martin was sold to an African American from Mobile, Alabama, named Horace King, an architect and builder of many bridges and structures that still stand today. His time with King was short before he was sold again. His mother died in 1852, and he never saw her again. He received a message from her before her passing that he viewed as prophetic: “Tell my son, he shall not wear out his days in slavery.”

Martin began planning his escape to the north, and on Jan. 6, 1856, he declared himself a free man at the age of 24 years old. Following the Underground Railroad, Martin made his way to Covenanter Church in Southfield. Martin lived out the remainder of his life as an abolitionist and minister, traveling the country and the world to fight for freedom. He was a colleague of Frederick Douglass and an acquaintance of Abraham Lincoln. When he died in 1876, his obituary appeared in the Detroit Free Press, as well as many other city newspapers in Michigan, England and Canada.

the personal stories of those who survived the Holocaust and rebuilt their lives in Michigan after the war. By localizing the history from the perspective of those who lived it, rather than those who perpetrated it, we are showing that the Holocaust did not happen so long ago or so far away.”

According to Mulder, the exhibit is telling stories as much as possible. One of the ways that has been accomplished is via an area of the exhibit titled “People and Possessions,” which features artifacts that represent losses people had as a result of the Nazis.

One such example includes wedding rings that were found by U.S. soldiers.

“There are a few artifacts that I know have been contextualized and utilized in such a way that everybody is catching the story and picking up on them,” Mulder said. “There was a room in the old exhibit that featured a lot of graphic Holocaust liberation imagery that now we use to talk about the possessions and lives that were taken from people within the camps, in that space, in particular. It’s really been moving for our visitors. … This is a space where we partially help people to see there are stories we can’t tell because we’ll never know the stories behind

some of these artifacts because of what happened to the previous owners and the people who were associated with them before.”

According to Mulder, the exhibit has 60 Holocaust survivors from Michigan featured in different ways, including quotes printed on the wall, videos and artifacts.

Although there are newer recordings, such as Tajch Klisman’s, Mulder said most of the recordings and testimonies were given to the center throughout the history of the institution.

The last day construction workers were in the building was Dec. 3, with the funds for the project coming from donations, according to Mulder.

He studied museology at the University of Washington and said that a decade’s worth of research has brought things to this point.

“A project like this might only come around once in my career,” Mulder said. “To say that it is extraordinarily satisfying is (an) understatement. … I’ve been researching this topic since undergrad, and my graduate thesis was on Holocaust representation in museums. … It is such a moving experience.”

Stories such as that of Tajch Klisman’s are at the heart of the new exhibit.

“Each time I see it, it’s just so meaningful,” Ellis said. “I get emotional — just so proud of my mother, of how she has had the ability to be so resilient and share her story with the world.”
