Miller Rothlein supports art making and arts education as a base for positive change.
Education, Collaboration, and Innovation.
Through dance and visual arts based projects, programs and partnerships, Miller Rothlein supports innovative art making and arts education in the communities where we live, work and create.
We believe that arts education doesn’t only produce artists, but empowers people to create new solutions, bridge unlikely connections, and impact community — serving as a base for positive change.
