JUNE 4-10

We’re celebrating Pride Week at the Zoo, and we want you to join us! This week-long celebration of our diverse team and community members will include themed spirit days, informative activities and rainbow animal enrichment. If you’re visiting the Zoo during Pride Week, you’re invited to participate in our spirit week celebration!

• Sunday, June 4: Pin Your Pride; purchase a Pride-themed pin at the Zoo for $2 – proceeds go toward PFLAG, an organization dedicated to supporting, educating and advocating for LGBTQ+ people and their families.
• Monday, June 5: Zoo Spirit; dress as your favorite animal!
• Tuesday, June 6: Crazy Hair and Sock; dress up your hair or feet!
• Wednesday, June 7: Team Spirit; go as your sports team or dress up as a group!
• Thursday, June 8: Pride Shirts; Zoo staff wears matching T-shirts, and the community can dress in rainbow or however they please!
• Friday, June 9: Flashback Friday; grab garb from your favorite decade!
• Saturday, June 10: Rainbow Day; put on your most colorful outfit!

Pride Week is an initiative by the Zoo’s employee-driven diversity, equity, accessibility and inclusion (DEAI) committee. The DEAI group is committed to creating positive change at the Zoo and in our community.

We hope you can join in on the fun, and we look forward to hosting more DEAI celebrations in the future. Stay tuned!
