Audubon Zoo does its part to help spread the message of conservation with its annual Earth Fest celebration. Earth Fest is a fun way for zoo visitors to learn about saving the environment. Exhibitors representing groups from the non-profit and governmental sectors as well as businesses involved with environmental issues will help Zoo visitors answer questions for prizes on the Earth Quest game. Great food and crafts available for purchase!
Special kids’ activities abound at Earth Fest such as creating toys from recyclable materials and observing art in progress by folk artists. And for bigger kids, dancing to live music works up an appetite for spectacular New Orleans cuisine available for purchase at Swamp Fest. Participants also have a chance to see the Audubon Zoo’s famous exhibits, like white tigers, the Komodo dragon, Jaguar Jungle and the Louisiana Swamp.
