Paint the Jewels of La Jolla at Kellogg Park: A Community Art Experience Celebrating Marine Wildlife
📸 Wildlife Jewels’ Paint the Jewels of La Jolla in celebration of the UN World Wildlife Day- Kellogg Park, La Jolla, CA March 6, 2026
Wildlife Jewels hosted its Paint the Jewels of La Jolla at Kellogg Park, a community art activity celebrating real coastal wildlife observed, documented, and helped through local conservation efforts.✨💜💎
Inspired by some of La Jolla’s precious wildlife inhabitants we’ve observed, documented, and helped rescue, the community helped bring two canvases to life through color, creativity, and care. Participants also drew inspiration from our wildlife paintings on display, learning about each real animal featured in the artwork.
The pieces became a beautiful reflection of wonder, connection, and appreciation for the wildlife that makes this coastline so special.
Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating La Jolla’s magical wildlife.
