Japanese Friendship Garden Society of San Diego

In partnership with five other Japanese gardens, the Japanese Friendship Garden Society of San Diego will implement a collaborative project called the Zen of Multi-Touch. Together with Balboa Park Online, the project will create interactive virtual tours of the participating gardens, produce a photography exhibit of the six gardens’ panoramic images, and develop a mobile audio tour. It will help the gardens increase public knowledge of Japanese heritage, excite and engage more than 100,000 visitors through participatory exhibits, and strengthen connections among Japanese gardens in the United States.
