Cocoa and Canvas 2026
Enjoy cocoa while watching animal ambassadors create art, with tours and educational opportunities at the wildlife center.
Our animal artists are ready to make you a piece of artwork your friends will envy! Do you want a turtle artist? Or opossum? This year, our very own Dug, the groundhog, will also be throwing his hat in the ring for the most creative piece of artwork. We’re sure you’ll “dig” it! Our Cocoa and Canvas event is a blast. During your time here, you will get to learn about our mission, meet some animal ambassadors, get an outdoor tour of the Center , and watch one of our animal ambassadors paint a 5×7 canvas for YOU to take home! Of course, no Cocoa and Canvas experience would be complete without a warm cup of cocoa to sip while you create memories and celebrate the season.
