Wildlife at CuriOdyssey
CuriOdyssey houses approximately 70 live animals, most of whom are with us from rehabilitation facilities because they could not survive in the wild. Come visit our wildlife in their habitats and public programs!
Everyone can play hard at Whooosh!
Designed by Magical Bridge Foundation, the accessible and innovative physics-in-action playground is the first of its kind to be built by a zoo and museum. Located in CuriOdyssey’s gardens, the playground incorporates universal design principles to ensure fun for all ages and abilities.
Join us for First Friday Nights every month!
Every first Friday of the month, CuriOdyssey stays open late so you and your family can have a blast! Dance to some of your favorite pop and rock hits while enjoying animal presentations, delicious food from local food trucks, and various games, activities, and special events!
