Promoting Accessibility and Guest Engagement at the Seneca Park Zoo Animal Hospital

September 1, 2021 - September 30, 2022 | Exhibitions

Monroe County’s Seneca Park Zoo will modernize the guest experience in the zoo’s Animal Hospital to increase accessibility and promote visitor engagement. The project will address existing barriers to visitor participation and engagement by updating the educational graphics and incorporating new technology into the exhibit to create a multisensory experience that engages visitors of all education levels, interests, and abilities. The modernized Animal Hospital will benefit the zoo’s 400,000 annual visitors and help accomplish its strategic goals of compelling storytelling and providing exceptional educational experiences to inspire conservation action.
