Beastly Bash: The Gathering

Overview

From rearing and releasing one of the world’s most endangered butterflies to caring for some of the world’s rarest tiger cubs, the Minnesota Zoo lives by its mission to connect people, animals, and the natural world to save wildlife.

That mission has an even greater impact when it’s championed and supported by the broader community. That’s why the Minnesota Zoo Foundation is inviting the community to “Beastly Bash: The Gathering” on Saturday, Sept. 21, to learn more about the Zoo, the Zoo Foundation, and the collective impact we have on the greater world around us.

This is part of the new Beastly Bash Weekend, an annual fundraising event hosted by the Minnesota Zoo Foundation in support of the Zoo. Split over two days, Beastly Bash features an evening Gala on Friday, Sept. 20, followed by a separate, daytime Zoo experience on Saturday, Sept. 21, called The Gathering.

The Gathering is open to all who are interested in connecting with the Zoo and Zoo Foundation on a deeper level. This community-focused experience features an extraordinary day at the Zoo filled with onsite animal demonstrations and programming, food trucks, and an offering of activities to encourage philanthropy and education.

Make any donation to the Zoo Foundation and receive free access to the Zoo for The Gathering on Saturday, Sept. 21. You must sign up online in advance, as space is limited.

Be part of the Beastly Bash Weekend and experience the extraordinary while learning how you can make a difference at the Minnesota Zoo. Learn more at MNZoo.org/BeastlyBash.
