The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium offers over 2,000 programs and reaches more than 300,000 participants annually.
Programming includes ZooKids preschool classes, summer day camps, winter break day camps, overnight programs, and more. Since accessibility plays a large part in our mission to inspire the next generation of conservationists, scholarships are available for many of our educational programs. We also offer self-guided activities for field trips, activities for home or school use, and Girl Scout and Cub Scout self-guided activities for badges.
