Volunteer Project List

A docent is a person who acts as a guide and teacher to zoo visitors to enhance their experience. Docents will use interpretive storytelling to make meaningful connections between visitors and with the conservation stories of the animals in our care.

Weekday individual assignments as they arise to assist in craft projects, office support, decorating, light construction outside of groundskeeping. Must be available between the hours of 9-5 on one or more week days.

Volunteers are needed for a variety of jobs to clean up and maintain the areas around the paths and habitats at the zoo.  Projects include but are not limited to: debris removal, assisting in planting and maintaining the zoo garden areas while painting and minor repairs to signage and art installations and organization in storage areas may also be needed.
