Come together and stand out.

The MINI community believes that we’re all different, but better together. That’s why we’re partnering with these artists to share their stories through the rooftops they’ve created.

Connected through art.

The artwork can be purchased as a rooftop for your MINI, or seen as a wallscape in select markets. If you see one on the road, take a pic to share, or be the one to show it off.

Rallying for a good cause.

MINI supports the American Immigration Council, an organization committed to creating a more inclusive country, where acknowledging our differences only make us stronger.
