Naturally Inspired Paint Out

April 15 @ 8:30 am 3:30 pm EDT

ach year, the Zoo invites a group of juried artists to make art “en plein air” (outdoors) at the Naturally Inspired Paint Out presented by The Great Frame Up Downtown. This signature Zoo event is a great opportunity to showcase your talents in front of thousands of Zoo patrons while also supporting the Zoo’s mission of animal conservation. ​

During this annual event, artists transform a blank canvas or a hunk of clay into a truly extraordinary work of art inspired by the natural world, right here at the Indianapolis Zoo.

After the artworks are complete and been professionally framed by The Great Frame Up Downtown, see them alongside the works of some of our more artistically inclined animals. Artists will be encouraged to mingle with members, donors and guests and discuss their artwork.

Come see these colorful creations in person, and then you can take home the art your heart desires during the Naturally Inspired Silent Auction.

$12.25 – $32.75 Included in Zoo General Admission
