Commemorative Brick Program

The North Arrival Brick Plaza in front of The Living World is centered around the existing rocky sculpture, a well-known landmark for climbing children and a popular photo site for our visitors. It features four types of bricks laid in rings around the existing sculpture and fountain.

When you purchase a commemorative brick to be placed at the North Entrance of the Zoo, your gift will support our conservation efforts both at the Zoo and around the world. These bricks are a great way to honor the memory of a loved one, commemorate a special occasion or proclaim your family’s love of the Zoo.
