Award-Winning singer Leila Milki will perform during the gala



Leila Milki is an award-winning Lebanese American singer, songwriter, and classical-pop pianist based in Los Angeles. As one of Arab America's "30 Under 30" honorees, she strives to translate her artistry into a healing platform for emotional and multicultural empowerment, while elevating visibility for fellow first-generation daughters of the Arab diaspora.

Her Arabic/English fusion work has earned her a Grand Prize and Lennon Award in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, along with a feature in Disney's Emmy-nominated series "The Rocketeer" (with her song "Enjoy Your Meal," a festive tribute to Lebanese cuisine and Arab women across generations). Today, Leila is most passionate about showcasing vulnerability as strength, and finding beauty in the complex spaces between.

Her latest cinematic ballad "Fall Asleep" explores the dual-identity limbo that intensifies her experience of femininity within structures of shame, repression, and peacekeeping. And her collection of piano-meditation records welcomes the coexistence of solitude and mindfulness, loss, and renewal.

"Springtime Improvisations," her newest, draws from the blooming scenery of her neighborhood walks, and the beauty of stepping outside to nurture a deeper look inward. Most recently, Leila had the opportunity to record Arabic vocals for the 2022 World Cup track "The World Can Be Ours," a duet with Grammy-winning artist Louis II.
