Join us for an exciting evening celebrating the Phoenix Zoo’s conservation efforts! Engage with conservation scientists and discover the impactful work we’re doing to preserve species in Arizona. This is a family-friendly event and there is something for everyone!

This year’s interactive stations include:

  • Putting your speed and agility to the test through our black-footed ferret bootcamp
  • Using a black light to identify tagged narrow-headed gartersnakes
  • Surveying and appreciating our smallest friends, Arizona’s springsnails
