Welcome to Chaparral Artists

We are an art organization in the Morongo Basin that exists to support artists. Chaparral Artists started as a group of friends that wanted to assist the local theater, later separating into the Chaparral Artists organization. In 2013 we were granted 501(c)3 status with a strong goal of supporting art culture and providing youth art opportunities in the area.

Nancy Miehle is sharing a collection of her large and beautiful works at AquaFit (Center for Healthy Generations) until September 26. Be sure to get by there and enjoy the beauty soon. Due to the fun Rubber Ducky event and our Show Chairperson’s traveling schedule, we will wait to showcase our next Feature Artist – Meilani MacDonald starting October 14!

Jennifer Grandi is sharing her paintings through September at the Desert Hills Presbyterian Church. Jennifer often works with pastels and is adept at creating both the softest, dreamy strokes and bold, colorful choices with the same medium. She is showcasing both originals and prints, providing a great opportunity to find something special for someone.

Show your support by visiting these venues and enjoying beautiful creations! For more information about these venues, visit the Schedule page. For more information about these artists visit the Members page and search for their name.
