Party for the Planet at the Zoo
Our Earth Day celebrations were cut short due to a weather closure at the Zoo. We are happy to invite you to join us for a make-up day on Saturday, May 14!
Become an environmental superhero! Learn about the animals at the Zoo and participate in activities that inspire you to care for the planet.
- Zoo Chats with our animal care professionals (full schedule below!)

All activities are free with regular Zoo admission.
