Let's get in with the animals with a sketch day at the Oakland Zoo! The zoo has lots of wonderful sketching spots.

In order to make the most of the day, we'll meet at 10:00 when the zoo opens. Feel free to join us later in the day if you can't make the earlier time. (Just text/call Kate at 510-898-6845 when you arrive.)

  • We'll meet at 10:00 in front of the Flamingos (just inside the main entrance.)
