Mark Mulder

Mark Mulder is the Director of Curatorial Affairs at The Zekelman Holocaust Center, located in Farmington Hills, Michigan. He has been in this role since November 2022. Prior to that, he served as the Manager of Curatorial Affairs from June 2021 to November 2022 and as an Exhibits Curator from February 2021 to November 2022.2

Mulder played a significant role in the recent $31 million renovation of The Zekelman Holocaust Center, a project that took nearly eight years to complete. This renovation aimed to enhance the museum's focus on personal stories of Holocaust survivors, particularly those who settled in Michigan after World War II. The new core exhibition features artifacts, archival footage, images, and interactive videos that highlight survivor testimonies.134

He has emphasized the importance of presenting the Holocaust from the perspective of those who experienced it, rather than from those who perpetrated it, to ensure that visitors gain a personal understanding of the events and their impact on society.1
