Tuesday-Thursday, June 16-18, 2026

The TAEA Leadership Retreat is for members of TAEA who are interested in developing leadership skills and volunteering to serve in TAEA leadership roles. 2026 Leadership Retreat will focus on leadership philosophy and preparation through art making, presenters, and the book Great Leaders Grow by Ken Blanchard and Mark Miller.

Mo-Ranch is located outside of Kerrville in the heart of the Hill Country on 500 acres along the Guadalupe River. Mo-Ranch is a beautiful location and lends itself to en plein air and photo opportunities, so bring your favorite art supplies. The drive to Mo-Ranch is very winding with wildlife by the road side, so take your time and enjoy the views. Check out Mo Ranch website for more information.

Activities at Mo-Ranch include River Front and Hiking/Biking Trails, Pool, Basketball, Sand Volleyball, Tennis and Frisbee Golf Course. All is first come first use and any equipment can be checked out at the Registration Building. If you enjoy biking, bring your own bike.
