The Company Artists of Smuin Contemporary Ballet are distinct. Individuality defines each dancer’s personal expression, and their coalescence is breathtaking.

For 31 years, Smuin has unleashed the limitless power of dance for audiences across the Bay Area and beyond. Now under the leadership of Artistic Director Amy Seiwert, the company continues its tradition of revealing the versatility of ballet, creating works that appeal to diverse audiences, and showcasing why Smuin is a company like none other.

The 2026 Annual Gala is a chance to “stand out from the crowd” with us. We’ll celebrate our unique history and look toward the future. Of ballet. Of individuality. Of Smuin.
