Celebrate and thank mom with a fun and relaxing day at the Zoo. Mothers of all generations will receive free daytime admission at the gate with an accompanying paying child or adult admission.

Meet some of the Zoo’s animal moms and learn how they care for their little wild ones. See how zookeepers care for our animal families and watch as they provide some “pampering enrichment” to a few of our animal moms. This Mother’s Day is extra meaningful as the Zoo recently welcomes two new spring babies: a giraffe and elephant calf, who are important births for their species.

Have you ever wanted to be an artist? There’s a local painter named Joe Pagac who has many murals around Tucson. Pagac has painted murals in such far away places as India, too!

Pagac has made hundreds of murals over the years. He comes from a long line of artists. He attended Sam Hughes Elementary and eventually the University of Arizona. He began painting when he was about 16 when he painted a mural in his bedroom. During college, art professor Sheila Pitt inspired him to pursue painting. After college, Pagac began working as a painter.
