Mini Masterpieces

Join the Orange County Art Educators Association for a FREE creative community event where participants of all ages and skill levels paint miniature canvases with messages of hope, inspiration, and support for arts education.

These pocket-sized masterpieces will be left throughout our community on park benches, library shelves, coffee shop counters, and other public spaces as surprise gifts for others to discover, each carrying a simple but powerful message that arts education matters.

No artistic experience required! Just bring your enthusiasm and join us in spreading advocacy one tiny canvas at a time, as we create a wave of color and inspiration across Orange County while sparking important conversations about the vital role of arts in developing creative, critical thinkers and strengthening communities.

All materials provided, all ages welcome, all voices needed.

We will have two painting sessions.

Session 1 starts at 10:10 am and goes until 11:55 am.

Session 2 starts at 12:00 pm and goes until 1:55 pm.

Please attend one session per person to allow space for more community members.
