Thank you for joining us for Sunday Funday this year. We hope to welcome you back in 2027. Dates and details will be shared when available.

Free for members and included with admission

Sunday Funday is a playful, family-friendly program inviting children of all ages to explore the beauty of the Garden and connect with nature through hands-on, creative experiences. Families can enjoy face painting, arts and crafts, family yoga, a seed-planting activity, lawn games, and more. 

During each program, guests will also have the opportunity to experience our special exhibition, Spirit Guides, featuring large-scale sculptures of brightly colored, richly patterned imaginary hybrid animals. Select activities and activations throughout the afternoon will be offered bilingually (English/Spanish), supporting inclusive engagement for families in our community. This is a drop-in program; no advance registration is required.

Know Before You Go
Spirit Guides
Partnering with the Sonoma Botanical Garden for Sunday Funday is such a joyful way for us to connect with new families and build community through creativity. Last year’s frog-themed art was a blast, and we’re excited to soar into bird-inspired projects this summer. There’s something truly powerful about making art outdoors, under the trees, and surrounded by music and laughter! Our mobile art studio is geared up and ready to roll to the Garden!
