Martha Minkler
Director of Development/Rebuilding

Martha Minkler, a 31-year resident of Temecula, has long been involved with cultural affairs and social issues in the Temecula Valley. Formerly contracted to serve as Executive Director of the Arts Council of Temecula Valley, Martha's company MJM Management Corporation currently provides management consulting and grant writing services to nonprofit organizations. In the late 1980's and early 1990's Martha was the project manager for the construction of a 23,750 square foot medical office building in Temecula. After completion of the medical facility she not only managed that building, but also a sixty-three acre business park community association.

Martha serves on the Riverside County Commission for Women, as a Board member of the Inland Empire Affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, HEART for Children Foundation, Women's Legacy Foundation, and the Theatre Foundation. She is a member of the Rotary Club of Temecula and was recognized as the 2004 Temecula Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year.

Martha is excited about rebuilding Dorland Mountain Arts Colony. She said, "This project could never have moved forward the way it has without the generosity of donated time and effort on the part of Larry and Joann Markham, owners of Markham Development Management Group, a dedicated Board of Directors, Executive Director Karen Parrott, resident artist and caretaker Robert Willis, and a host of very generous and dedicated Friends of Dorland."
