First working in a nature center, followed by an aquarium and later a zoo, she founded The Acorn Group in 1990. Since that time she has been directly involved in the development of hundreds of interpretive master plans, interpretive panels, and exhibit design packages. Projects have taken her to California’s coastal dunes, Oregon’s rugged coastline, New Mexico’s arid desert and steppe, the hardwood forests of Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Arkansas, and cypress swamps of Florida. Regardless of setting, her focus is on creating sensory-rich experiences and helping visitors cultivate their own sense of place. Jenny’s training and experience have earned her a reputation for creating effective, dynamic educational and interpretive experiences. Her projects and efforts are nationally recognized. She is the recipient of the 2002 California Project Learning Tree Award for Service to Environmental Education, the 2002 California Institute for Biodiversity Educator of the Year Award, and the 2005 Jennifer Rigby Howard Bell Award for outstanding achievements and contributions as a leader in the field by the Director Association for Environmental and Outdoor Education. In 2012 the North American Association for The Acorn Group Environment Education honored her with their Outstanding Service to Environmental Education Award.

California, Irvine Exhibit designer James Freed brings 14 years of experience and an uncanny ability to translate exhibit narratives into stunning renderings. A skilled draftsman and illustrator, he also has a back- ground in architectural design. Jim holds a BFA in Illustration from the prestigious Art Center College of Design in Pasadena and a master’s degree in education. Jim’s work is showcased in many of The Acorn Group’s recent projects, including interpretive master plans for the Diamond Valley Lake Visitor Center, Alameda Creek Watershed Center, Hay- ward Shoreline Interpretive Center, Garvan Woodland Gardens, Placerita Canyon Nature Area, West Basin Municipal Water District’s Water Education Center, West Coyote Hills, New Mexico Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum, State of Oregon/Coos Bay Region, Chilao Visitor Center, Coral Mountain Regional Park, Agua Hedionda Lagoon Discovery Center, Huntington Beach Wetlands Conservancy Center, George F Canyon Nature Center, and White Point Nature Preserve. James Freed Jim brings his understanding of natural and cultural history to the drawing board, using hundreds of the digital photos he takes, as well as reference materials, to create realistic and biologically ac- curate drawings. His work is showcased on The Acorn Group website. Jim has helped develop the look and feel of our interpretive pods, pullouts, vista points, adult-child interactions, and audience- media interactions for numerous interpretive master plans. He is remarkably adept at capturing the moods and nuances of such experiences, while at the same time, remaining spatially precise about building envelopes, ADA standards, square footage, access and egress, and other essential factors that cannot be ignored. Further, his spectacular renderings become significant fund-raising and friend-raising tools once master plan documents are finalized and implementation begins. Brian Burton’s areas of expertise include interpretive panel design and production, as well as design and production of educational media, brochures, advertisements, packaging, and graphic identity and standards. With more than 25 years experience, Brian’s work has encompassed hundreds of logos, brochures, posters, and packaging, and recently, interpretive panels and other media related to outdoor in- terpretation of natural and cultural history. Brian’s creative talents can be seen in work created by The Acorn Group for Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, City of Highland, Alameda Creek Watershed Center, Huntington Beach Wetlands Conservancy’s new center, Orange County’s Old Courthouse, Glendale’s Verdugo Mountain Trail, Highland’s Parkland Trail, Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, Coast- keepers Garden, DeForest Wetlands, Chadwick School, West Basin’s Water Education Center, Dana Point Headlands, White Point Preserve, Coral Mountain Discovery Park, Agua Hedionda Lagoon and Discovery Center, Environmental Nature Center, Big Canyon Creek Nature Park at the Up- per Newport Bay, and West Coyote Hills.
