It is our greatest pleasure to announce the Mills Music Field Trip to the Disney Performing Arts Music 101 Workshop at Disneyland in Los Angeles, CA. Students will be leaving Friday, March 8 before class starts, and return Monday March 12, 2024 (students will miss two days of school: one minimum day and one one full day of school).
​
The Disney workshop simulates being a professional musician group in a studio environment. During the workshop, students will sightread and work directly with industry professionals, culminating with a screening of their recorded work set to Disney film footage. Please see the details following the links on this page.
​
The cost of the trip is $800 per student with minimum 80 student participation. Due to transportation constraints, there is a maximum student capacity of 110. The first 110 students who register and submit the intial deposits will be guaranteed a spot on the bus. Please review the links and documents listed below for detailed information. Itinerary from the previous trip is supplied in the links below to give an idea of the activities during the trip. Itinerary will be updated as information become available.
