We have events and activities that extend beyond your daily visit and allow you to learn more about the Zoo you support and love.

You don't need kids to have a great time at the Zoo. In fact you will discover a whole new Zoo adventure. Adult programs are a great way to spend your first date or your 101st date.

^{Classes meet in the Cargill Learning Center unless otherwise noted. Space is limited; therefore pre-registration is required. Please contact Cargill Learning Center to reserve your place. Classes take place rain or shine. Please remember, for everyone's safety and enjoyment all class participants must meet age requirements.}

Leave the kids behind! These 90-minute classes are designed for adults ages 18 and over and focus on different aspects of the Zoo, conservation issues, or geographic locations. The fee of $8 for members / $10 for nonmembers covers one adult. Classes run from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m.
