Accessibility Note: Our upper-level animal exhibit and lower level classroom spaces are currently not wheelchair accessible. However, we’d love to accommodate on the first level. Please don’t hesitate to email us at [email protected] with any accessibility needs before your visit—we’re happy to help!

Additional Note: Families are welcome! Children under 14 should be accompanied by an adult. If you or your child would like to simply watch the class without participating, we’d love to have you. You can easily grab guardian/observer tickets at the front desk or online through our ticket portal.

All sales are final, but we’re happy to exchange your tickets for a different ticketed experience. Thank you for your understanding and support!
