Nancy Rexford HONORED with NEMA Excellence Award

"What a remarkable career."
- Scarlett Hoey of the New England Museum Association

The New England Museum Association (NEMA) honored former Acting Director Nancy Rexford with a NEMA Excellence Award on November 20, 2020 during the organization's annual conference held virtually this year.

The NEMA Awards recognize museum workers who show a demonstrated passion for improving New England's museum community, make a sustained commitment to going above and beyond and perform an outstanding act of service.  Rexford's herculean efforts in 2013-2016 revitalized Historic Northampton in the face of enormous challenges.
