CHELSEA COLLISON
LEARNING & ENGAGEMENT PROFESSIONAL
About Me
I have a combined 10 years experience in community outreach, digital communication, museum education, content creation, event planning, and nonprofit management with advanced degrees in museum studies and anthropology.
I specialize in using communication strategies and partnership-building to increase public awareness, appreciation, and curiosity for heritage, history, and nature.
I’ve accomplished this through the coordination of small and large-scale public programs including in-person and virtual storytelling events, lectures, workshops, camps, and family-style festivals with 2,000+ attendees. Topics have included everything from astronomy to sharks to mushrooms.
During 2020 when COVID-19 made outreach and engagement especially difficult, I even dressed up as a giant ground sloth to teach virtual summer camps!
I also use data-driven methods of program evaluation to develop new ways of improving participant experience and learning. Through my social media coordination, blog writing, and magazine editing I reach new audiences & encourage engagement with the organizations I serve.
Examples of my work can be found in the PROGRAMMING & COMMUNICATION sections of this site.
