Jennifer L. Carlson is the Executive Director of the Association for the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville, PA. Prior to her start at the Colonial in April 2022, Jennifer served as Executive Director of the Connecticut River Museum in Essex, CT. During her tenure there, the museum acquired two Coast Guard inspected vessels for educational river cruises that diversified the museum's resources for outdoor recreational and educational experiences. Before moving to Connecticut, this PA native served as Executive Director of Wyck Historic House, Garden, and Farm, a National Historic Landmark. Jennifer led a team which submitted and was awarded a Save America's Treasures grant to further restoration of the 300+ year old homestead. She now looks to deepen the Colonial Theatre’s community engagement with Phoenixville residents, expand its audience, revitalize the site’s original 1903 auditorium, and seek ways to “ensure its future as a premiere multi-arts center.”
