Volunteer: River Days Petals & Paint: Grant Park Flower Fence Mural Gathering - 5/16/26

Come celebrate River Days with us and let your creativity bloom as we paint a colorful flower mural on the fence at Grant Park in Mission Valley!

This vibrant, hands-on experience takes place at our new nature learning center in the heart of the valley. Add your artistic touch and help create a beautiful, welcoming space where thousands of students, residents, and visitors will begin their journey exploring the San Diego River.

No supplies or experience are necessary and leaders will be on hand to help lead the art project.  We would love for you to join us! We need many volunteers so invite your friends and family! All ages welcome! If you have any questions, please email shane@sansiegoriver.org. 

River Days is our annual 9-day celebration of the San Diego River! SDRPF and an estimated 20 partners host fun nature outings, volunteer opportunities, art activities, bike rides, hikes, and much more along all 52 miles of the river.

The celebration kicks off with the 5K Walk for Wildlife and Fun Run on May 9th. JOIN US! To see the full River Days schedule, click here.
