Jenny Kendler is an American artist, activist and naturalist whose work deals with "re-storying" human beings' relationship with the natural world through projects on ecological loss, climate change, facing extinction and welcoming 'otherness' in the natural world.
Since 2014 she has been the first Artist-in-Residence with the Natural Resources Defense Council.
Her notable projects include Music For Elephants, Tell it to the Birds', Sculpture---> Garden, One Hour of Birds and Milkweed Dispersal Balloons.
She is also part of a cross-disciplinary team awarded a major grant from the Andrew W.
Mellon Foundation's Humanities Without Walls initiative to present her public art and community-engagement project Garden for a Changing Climate in 2018.
