Are you worried about our oceans? Does the impact people have on nature concern you? Or do you love art and how it connects us all?
Born of a lifetime passion for art and education and driven by personal tragedy, the Washed Ashore Project creates aesthetically powerful art from debris washed onto beaches. Washed Ashore educates a global audience about plastic pollution in oceans and sparks positive changes in consumer habits. By helping at an interpretive station which will include 1-3 interpretive activities designed for guest engagement; you can help make a difference for our oceans and the amazing life they hold!
AM shift 9:30-12
PM shift 12-2:30
We are especially looking for people who can help on Friday, Saturday or Sunday when we have the highest number of guests at the Zoo!
First training for stations will be Nov 2 from 10-11:30 OR Nov 3 from 9:30-11, so apply soon! There will be another training, but it may not be until January. Learn more at https://washedashore.org/exhibit

Mission Statement
Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens seeks to inspire people of all ages to respect, value and help conserve wildlife and our natural world.
Description
Naples Zoo is a nationally accredited zoo and yet much more than a walk-through zoo. The nonprofit 501(c)(3) charitable institution also features a full day of fun activities. The paved path winds nearly a mile past rare and beautiful animals residing within a historic tropical garden of exotic plants first planted in 1919 with a fascinating history.
In this tropical setting, you can take delight at seeing many of your favorite animals like lions, giraffes, monkeys, pythons, and bears. In addition, you'll also discover feature exhibits and an array of more rarely seen creatures like a giant anteater.
Combining conservation and recreation, Naples Zoo offers fun for every generation. You'll also discover a number of ways to get involved in helping animals. The zoo is accredited by the prestigious Association of Zoos and Aquariums and is an institutional member of the American Association of Zoo Keepers.
