Protecting the health of Zoo guests, volunteers, staff and the animals is the top priority. Due to the nature of Brew at the Zoo and Wine, Too!, the Friends of the Louisville Zoo, together with Zoo leadership, has decided to cancel the event scheduled for August 29, 2020. Brew at the Zoo annually brings over 4,000 event participants and volunteers to the Zoo and there is lots of close social interaction.

The Friends regret that their 4,000+ event guests will not gather this year to raise funds to support a great community resource, however, they are looking forward to 2021! They thank all of their past event attendees, volunteers, vendors and sponsors for their loyal support of Brew at the Zoo & Wine, Too! over the years and look forward to seeing everyone back next year.

The Friends of the Louisville Zoo continue to seek ways to safely gather smaller groups of people to raise funds for the Zoo. The need is still there. They believe the Zoo is a tremendous asset for our city, state and region and feel passionately that it should remain one for generations to come. To that end, they have been working with the Zoo to determine new ways to host another event this year that would allow for more social distancing while guests still enjoy the Zoo. They also plan to include a silent auction with the new possible event. The Friends hope to announce details soon.
