    Join us for Little Artists: Art Camp at the San Diego Zoo! Little Artists is a full-day camp (9 a.m. to 3 p.m.) designed for those who are interested in both art and wildlife. Campers enjoy wildlife experiences, exclusive habitat visits, talks with wildlife care specialists and other Zoo team members, art projects, hands-on learning activities, crafts, and games. All art supplies are provided.

    Participants will receive a Summer Camp T-shirt. Campers will need to bring their own lunch, snack, and sunscreen, and wear comfortable shoes for long walks (no flip-flops), clothes that can get dirty, and a hat.

    Choose from two different Little Artists camp programs:

Please be advised we may make modifications to our existing camp program to be in alignment with these guidelines.
