BRING THE ZOO TO YOU
All in-person Zoo to You Education Programs are currently on hold due to COVID-19.
Bring the zoo animals to your group with our “Zoo to You” outreach program!
We travel Tuesday – Friday (10 a.m. – 2 p.m.) to public venues within Dane County (some restrictions apply)! Learn about our Education Animals and meet them up close! This is a great option for senior centers, nursing homes, grade-level school assemblies, after-school clubs, scout groups, community festivals, and grown-up clubs too!
A one- hour presentation is $125, and features live animals and a variety of age-appropriate content, including animal classification, adaptations, predator-prey relationship, natural history, and behavior.
Please email education@henryvilaszoo.gov to schedule your visit today! Our normal hours are 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Please allow a minimum of two weeks advance notice for scheduling.
Please note:
- Presentation staff is scheduled specifically for individual presentations. 24-hour notice of cancellation is required and greatly appreciated.
- Animals cannot be presented in food preparation or dining areas.
- There are seasonal temperature restrictions.
- This program travels to public venues in Dane County only; we are unable to present this program at private residences.
- Weekends and off hours may be available by request.
