ZOO GROOVES CONCERT – this Saturday!
Saturday, August 20
5:30 p.m. – performances begin at 6:00 p.m.
 New music from Norfolk’s own “School of Rock” house band and “Prana” will rock the Zoo’s event field, so pack your own blankets and lawn chairs! Concessions with your favorite summer foods and refreshments will be available for purchase until 8:00 p.m. Pack your blankets and lawn chairs to be entertained at this groovy event!
But…it’s not just about the music!
The Zoo’s new mascot will also get a name this Saturday! The name was suggested by a Zoo Grooves attendee earlier in the summer. Concert-goers will also have the opportunity to participate in a silent auction of original art by the Zoo’s animal residents. This event features art from Rimba the tapir, Schnitz the orangutan and others!

It’s National Honeybee Awareness Day! Join Tidewater Beekeepers Association this Saturday, August 20 at the Virginia Zoo to celebrate National Honeybee Awareness day. Check out the observation hive and look for the illusive queen bee as she works and possibly see a baby bee emerge from its tiny beeswax cell. Volunteer beekeepers will answer questions about beekeeping and the importance of the honeybee to our food crops in Virginia.
Be sure to visit them during day in the Water Plaza or in the evening at Zoo Grooves!
