ABOUT THE LOCATION:
Dedicated in 2011, Founder's Park was opened to commemorate Anaheim's agricultural history. Visitors can visit two historic homes in the park; the 1857 Mother Colony House is one of Anaheim's earliest homes and the Woelke-Stoffel House is a two-story Queen Anne built in 1894 during Anaheim's citrus era. Recent additions are a large Carriage House, a new Pump House and a windmill reminiscent of the citrus era. Founder's Park is also home to Anaheim's Moreton Bay Fig Tree, which is famously known as the inspiration for Disneyland's Swiss Family Robinson TreeHouse.

If you’re new to sketching, your equipment can be as simple as a pencil and a sketchbook!
We can't wait to see you there!
