The Virginia Zoo offers informal science education programs designed to motivate students through interactive live animal presentations while promoting awareness and encouraging conservation of wildlife and the environment.
Dr. Deb Mansfield, Principal, Bay View Elementary, Norfolk and VZS Board Member, participates with students from Bay View Elementary at the dedication of the Education and Visitor Center on April 12, 2003.
All of our programs, where appropriate, are designed to reinforce the Virginia Standards of Learning. Most of these exciting programs can even be brought directly to your classroom as part of our "Zoo to You" Program, which indicates a program that is able to travel to your school. All programs are available on zoo grounds. For more information please e-mail us at education@virginiazoo.org.

Over 3,500 guests attended the "Lions, Tigers & Symphony, Oh My!" concert by the Virginia Symphony Orchestra that was held at the Virginia Zoo on Sunday, September 7, making this the Zoo's highest attended 1-day event ever.
Attendees enjoyed a selection of "animal-themed" music presented under the baton of Virginia Symphony Orchestra Music Director, JoAnn Falletta. The outdoor concert on the lawn drew kids of all ages, and spectacular music inspired many of the littlest girls in pastel sundresses to gravitate to the front of the stage for an impromptu dance performance! Attendees settled in on lawn chairs and blankets in the Zoo's event field and enjoyed a feast of grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. As twilight approached and the concert was winding down, a flock of graceful white egrets glided over the crowd to the majestic music of "Jurassic Park" before perching in one of the Zoo's towering trees.
This special performance was made possible by a TOPS grant (Tourism Opportunity Program) from the City of Norfolk to the Virginia Symphony and sponsorship to both organizations by Bank of America.
PHOTO CAPTIONS: (1) Kicking off an evening of music are Charles Henderson, Hampton Roads market president of Bank of America, Carla Johnson, president and executive director of the Virginia Symphony Orchestra, and Greg Bockheim, executive director of the Virginia Zoo
(2) The Virginia Symphony drew a crowd of over 3,500 people to the Virginia Zoo for a special "Lions, Tigers & Symphony, Oh My!" concert.
