The 2021 North American Theatre Engineering and Architecture Conference (NATEAC), which is set to take place as a virtual event July 20, 21, and 22, 2021, will kick off with a keynote address by Jennifer Mallard, a Principal with Diamond Schmitt Architects in Toronto, Canada.

Bill Sapsis, Director of the North American Theatre Engineering and Architecture Conference (NATEAC) is very happy to announce that Jennifer Mallard, a Principal with Diamond Schmitt Architects in Toronto, Canada will give the NATEAC Keynote Address. In keeping with NATEAC tradition, the Keynote will lead off the 2021 Conference on Tuesday Morning, July 20th.

“Over the past three decades”, noted Sapsis, “Jennifer has been leading design teams and clients through the challenges of making civic buildings, including public libraries, educational institutions, and her favorite—performing arts centers. Her ethos and passion for large scale institutions, like the National Arts Center in Ottawa, and small, community based venues like the Regent Park Arts and Cultural Center in Toronto, are in wonderful alignment with the goals set out by NATEAC”. Mallard added “Seeing the spaces we help create being actively engaged with creative people—it’s why we do what we do.”

Mallard graduated from Carleton University in Ottawa and has worked with design firms in Ottawa, Vancouver, London, and Toronto.
