Jennifer Brehm

A seasoned leader in museum educational programs, she brings more than 25 years of experience from outstanding local cultural institutions such as the Independence Seaport Museum, Shofuso Japanese House & Garden, Valley Forge, and Historic Mount Vernon. In her recent role at the Barnes Foundation, Brehm launched a partnership with the School District of Philadelphia, which through an interdisciplinary approach, engaged more than 16,000 pre-K through 12th grade students each year.

As part of her work at the Barnes, she developed one of the first anti-racist educational training programs for teachers used in a museum setting in Philadelphia. She also orchestrated one of the first museum programs in the United States to use the Universal Design for Learning strategies, which ensure equal learning opportunities for all students.
