Shelburne Museum is fortunate to have a development director with Jeffs depth and breadth of experience in both non-profit development and marketing, Denenberg said. Jeff brings energy and experience that will benefit the institution and our membership and have a direct impact as Shelburne transitions from seasonal to year-round operation.
