After careful consideration of guidance from city and state officials and information from the Centers for Disease Control about the current coronavirus, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Zoo-To-Do for Kids presented by Children’s Hospital New Orleans, scheduled for August 28, 2020. The health and safety of our guests, sponsors, vendors, their families, and our staff and animals are our top priorities.
As a non-profit, Audubon Nature Institute relies on ticket sales, events, and donations to support our mission. The Zoo-To-Do fundraising events fund critical operations such as caring for our animals, our staff, and the public parks and museums that we steward for the New Orleans community. We are truly grateful for your support while we work to sustain Audubon’s core operations and ensuring the long-term viability of our organization during this challenging time.
If you purchased tickets to this event, please click here to view your options. Please e-mail zootodo@auduboninstitute.org and allow 48 hours for a response as we continue to work with a very limited staff.
We wish you and your family well during these uncertain times, and we look forward to welcoming you back. Thank you for your continued support of Audubon Nature Institute and the Zoo-To-Do events!
Just because the "wildest parties in town" have been rescheduled doesn't mean we can't have some fun now. Join us for a VIRTUAL Zoo-To-Do dance party on April 24!
