Small Mammal Art Experience
Join an EdVenture keeper for a memorable and fun painting session with one of our mammals!
Choose one of these animal ambassadors for a one-of-a-kind experience:
- North American porcupine – Kale has feet that are great for climbing and holding on to trees, and for creating special footprint art. She enjoys training with her keepers to make her masterpiece with many footprints and tail sweeps across her canvas.
- Striped skunk – Fred or George, are always having a fun time! They like to scamper, spin, and stand on the canvas, leaving unique marks for you to appreciate.
- Three-banded armadillo – Frida or Flora, are both adorable and artistic! Watch them jet across the canvas, leaving unique nail, foot, and tail paint marks wherever they go. Participants also may assist in training, by dropping tasty meal worms for our eager painter.
- American Beaver – Ginger typically uses her large flat tail to help propel her through the water, but she also uses it as a unique painting tool. Her favorite part about painting is the yummy treats that guests give her while making a masterpiece! (Seasonal availability.)
