Colleen Wilson & Christa Hoffman, Women of the Prescott Western Heritage Center
Colleen and Christa are two of four women serving on the executive board of the Western Heritage Center on Whiskey Row. The Center, a nonprofit organization, is run entirely by volunteers.
Colleen moved with her family from New York to Arizona in 1971. In 1991, she and her husband relocated to Minnesota, where they lived for nearly 30 years. After a long career in media sales, they returned to Arizona in 2019, choosing Prescott for its moderate climate and small-town charm.
She has been a dedicated volunteer at the Western Heritage Center for five years and currently serves as vice president of operations.
Christa was an East Coast native, but after her husband encouraged a visit to Arizona — everything changed. She quickly fell in love with the warmth of the people, and they soon made Arizona their home.
After joining the Western Heritage Center in May 2019, Christa knew they had found the right place.
She now serves as vice president of administration for the Western Heritage Foundation and enjoys dressing in Victorian attire to greet the many visitors from around the world who stop by the Center.
