  Performing Arts

  Our Performing Arts Department awakens, nurtures, develops and celebrates the musical, physical and dramatic artistic expression in each student. Buoyed by the ethical and spiritual values of Judaism, Milken students create honest and meaningful work, while pushing the limits of their own physical, mental and emotional capabilities through music, dance, acting and technical theater.

  Visual Arts

  Milken’s Visual Arts Department nurtures and cultivates students’ unique qualities in order to help unleash their creative abilities. Mastering the language of visual expression and interpretation, students gain exposure to a new way of artistic thinking, learning critical communication skills in an inspiring environment under the guidance of teachers and artists. As a core component of our visual arts focus, students learn self-discipline, critical thinking and decision making, challenging their perceptions of the world as they explore their identities through the creative process. The visual arts curriculum encompasses art history, culture and Judaic imagery.
