Sign up at the Austin Zoo to participate in Lemonade Day. Kids all over Austin will be setting up lemonade stands on May 5th. Stop by the gift shop to pick up a Lemonade Day information pack and backpack when you sign up.

As of March 1, our zoo concession stand will be open seven days a week from 11 AM to 3 PM Monday through Thursday, and 11 AM to 5 PM Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays! Feel free to come enjoy a snow cone in the warm weather!

Austin Zoo is in need of donations of animal carriers, or crates, for holding and transporting our animals.  These can be donated new or gently used, and we are looking for any size or shape.  As always, your donations are tax-deductible.  Austin Zoo accepts donations in the gift shop every day, from 10am to 5pm.  If you have any questions about donating to Austin Zoo, please call 512-288-1490.

We were chosen as one of five non-profits in the Austin area to be a Whole Foods Market Community Giving Day recipient!  Austin Zoo and Animal Sanctuary received 1% of the net sales for June 21.   We would like to say to Whole Foods and all their customers, thank you so much!
