Adult Volunteers
Engage. Educate. Inspire.
Volunteers at the Central Park Zoo work within the Education Department to engage zoo visitors in many different and exciting contexts. Through hands-on, conservation based experiences, our volunteers strive to inspire passion for wildlife and nature, cultivate scientific curiosity, and inspire conservation action in visitors of all ages.
As a Central Park Zoo volunteer, you may:
- Lead inquiry based expeditions for schoolchildren and other zoo visitors through parts of the zoo.
- Assist Conservation Educators during family programs, school programs, and more.
- Get involved in a variety of special events and zoo activities.
- Meet like-minded individuals and become part of a community.
- Have fun!
