Kid Sketch SD

A Virtual Sketching Lesson For kids of all ages!

Balboa Park ~ The Japanese Friendship Garden Museum

Join us for a virtual sketching lesson! KidSketch is a series of free virtual lessons to encourage sketching as a way to learn about and explore the world around us, as inspiration for the next generation of built-environment visionaries, and just to have fun! This program is open to kids of all ages (adults too).

Sketch one of Balboa Park's treasures - the Japanese Friendship Garden Museum. 

Fun Fact: The Japanese Friendship Garden Museum (JFGM) opened to the public in 1991 and is an expression of friendship between San Diego and its sister city, Yokohama. The garden is inspired from centuries-old Japanese design and techniques that showcase JFGM’s living exhibition comprised of plants and florae native to Japan and San Diego.

Our Second Saturday events bring first time sketchers and seasoned enthusiasts to the same table with a virtual event that is open to "kids" of all ages!

You have until 10:00am the day of the event to register, then grab a pencil and pen, some paper, and join in.

Post your finished sketches with hashtag #kidsketchsd
