Jenkins, who has been at RAW Arts since 1989, co-founded the RAW space in Lynn’s Central Square with RAW’s founder, Mary Flannery. The two have been working together in art therapy programs for nearly 20 years.

Jenkins oversees the “big picture” at the award-winning RAW Art Works, Inc. She coordinates fundraising efforts to meet annual budget demands, oversees RAW’s fiscal management, develops and renews contracts, and leads the current individual donor program and a drive to purchase the downtown Lynn building the organization calls home and expand current programs.

Jenkins, a skilled photographer, has more than 20 years experience in art therapy programs and is a member of the faculty at Lesley University.
