On campus
The performing and visual arts figure prominently into the Mills legacy, and the Oakland campus continues to present dozens of concerts, dance performances, readings, art exhibitions, and artist lectures throughout the academic year that are open to Mills alums and the general public.
• Mills Performing Arts (MPA) brings together the work of several departments to present dance, music, and theater performances as well as art lectures and literary readings. Events may feature faculty, student, and alum performers, and composers. Campus venues include Littlefield Concert Hall in the Music Building, Holland Theater and the Digital Performance Theater in Lisser Hall, Rothwell Theater in Adams Plaza, and the Greek Theatre. Admission is often free or discounted for alums with an AAMC member card.
• The Mills College Art Museum presents exhibitions by both outside artists and students as well as artist lectures. Admission is free.
Other lectures and gatherings occur throughout the academic year as well. Visit Northeastern’s Oakland events calendar for a comprehensive listing of campus events.
