JM celebrates the season with the annual holiday showcase featuring short performances from JM band, chorus, dance and theater — along with an exhibition of work by JM visual artists. Admission is free, but we encourage families attending to purchase a JMArts Raffle for the Arts ticket to help provide a full range of arts opportunities for all JM students regardless of their family’s financial status.
