Temecula Valley Art League Launches 2026 Mighty Minis Program to Support Youth Arts Education Temecula, CA
The Temecula Valley Art League (TVAL) is excited to announce the 2026 Mighty Minis Fundraiser and Exhibit.


The Temecula Valley Art League (TVAL) is excited to announce the 2026 Mighty Minis Fundraiser and Exhibit, a program designed to bring creativity, inspiration, and arts education to students across the Temecula Valley.
Now in its newest evolution, the Mighty Minis Program not only showcases the incredible talents of young artists but also provides critical funding for teachers and students, ensuring arts remain an integral part of the classroom. Through the program, TVAL offers free art classes, essential art supplies, and outreach initiatives to local schools—fostering creativity and appreciation for the arts in the next generation.
Call to Artists
TVAL invites local artists to participate by donating a Mighty Mini artwork. Each contribution supports youth arts education while giving the artists a chance to be featured in a two-month gallery exhibition. Participants can choose between:
- Full Donation: Donate 100% of the sale proceeds to TVAL’s youth outreach programs.
- Split Proceeds: Keep 70% of the sale proceeds and donate 30% to support arts education.
Artists may also become a Featured Mighty Minis Ambassador, showcasing three of their mini paintings in a prominent exhibit. Last year’s 2025 Featured Artist was the acclaimed Master Painter Jack Ragland, setting a high standard for local talent.

Impact on the Community

The 2026 Mighty Minis exhibit will be on display at the Temecula Civic Theater from February 5 through March 29, 2026, and the online fundraising auction will run concurrently, allowing the community to support both local artists and youth arts programs.
