Sunday, November 15, 2026 8:30-10:30am San Francisco Botanical Garden — Meet at Main Gate About the Program Join us for a fun-filled morning of discovery in the garden! Feathered Friends Garden Adventure is a hands-on experience designed for families to explore the world of birds and express their creativity through nature-based art. Taught by art educator and avid San Francisco birder Nancy Palmer, this class blends science and creativity in a welcoming, family-friendly setting. We’ll begin the morning with birdwatching basics, then head into the garden to observe feathered friends in their natural habitats. After the walk, we’ll settle in for a creative art session using natural materials and inspiration from what we’ve seen. This month’s workshop will focus on fall bird migration! As the seasons change, many birds are making their way south for the winter, while others are just arriving in San Francisco to spend the colder months. During our garden exploration, we’ll look for migrating birds passing through, as well as winter visitors like ducks and sapsuckers that may be starting to arrive. We’ll learn about the amazing journeys birds make each year and discover how the garden provides important habitat along the way. Whether you’re spotting birds in the treetops or creating bird-inspired artwork, this class connects kids and parents with nature in a fun and meaningful way. Bring your curiosity, your binoculars, and get ready to explore, create, and learn together! — Gardens of Golden Gate Park Members may attend this event at a 20% discount.
