Welcome to Special Zoo Experiences!
 Our Special Zoo Experiences give guests opportunities to
discover the Zoo beyond the usual Zoo visit. Each Experience is
unique and brings participants closer to the beauty and wonder
of the natural world, and each will let participants learn
more about the vital animal conservation mission of the
Indianapolis Zoo.
Animal
Art Adventure
An Animal Art Adventure will take up to
four guests behind the scenes where one of our talented animal artists
will create a personalized painting to take home. Guests will meet the artist
and learn what makes them unique in our collection, as well as help
choose colors for their painting. With four different art
adventures to choose from — Elephant, Penguin, Pinniped and our
newest option, Dolphin — there is a special experience for every
animal lover!

The Dolphin In-Water Adventure gives guests the opportunity to
meet our dolphins up close and personal with an experience of a
lifetime. Participants will meet a dolphin in the pool, learn
hand signals for behaviors and reward a dolphin with fish.
