Crafting Decorations for ZooLights at Lincoln Park Zoo!

Save to Favorites

We are getting prepared for our annual ZooLights winter festival, which begins the day after Thanksgiving. This year, we are looking for as many volunteers as possible to assist us with crafting paper chains and snowflakes that will hang in the Small Mammal Reptile House throughout ZooLights. There will be an indoor work space that we will use on zoo grounds to make these decorations, and we have snowflake templates available so this won't be too difficult! We hope you can join us for this fun and simple shift! This volunteer opportunity is open to ages 18+. If you are interested in volunteering, here are the dates below.

Crafting Decorations

Wednesday, October 25 from 11am-2pm

We will cover the cost of parking for you if you choose to park in our lot on Cannon Drive.

If you are interested in signing up, please reply to this post and confirm the date(s) you would like to sign up. We will then reply to you to tell you where to meet for the day and all details you'll need.

*All volunteers will need to sign a waiver upon arrival in order to participate in this activity.

We hope you can join us in the effort to make our Small Mammal Reptile House look spectacular for this event!
