For over two decades, Ms. Jenkins’ choreographic attention has been focused on cross-cultural collaborations between her Company and international artists. For her unique artistic vision, Jenkins has received numerous awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, an Irvine Fellowship in Dance, the San Francisco Arts Commission Award of Honor, and three Isadora Duncan Awards (Izzies),

Ms. Jenkins is intrigued by making distinct units of new work (solos, duets, trios, quartets) and re-imagining her highly-charged kinetic material into a new vocabulary that can be seen in the round, in a garden, a gallery, a home or in more conventional theatrical venues. The flexibility of Site Series has allowed the Company to launch a new way of working, more intimate in every aspect, performing more frequently in the San Francisco Bay Area, around the country, and throughout the world.
