Welcome to the Kathy Brady Education Center

Formerly the Zoo’s Research Center – a gathering place for educational programs, rare artifacts, and some of the zoo’s most fascinating amphibians and insects – the building is also home to the zoo’s summer camps and teen volunteer programs. The renovated center will feature a new outdoor pavilion and walkways, and it will be dedicated to the memory of Kathy Brady, a New York resident who loved nature, the zoo, and photographing wildlife, and who passed away in 2022.
​
Zoo Director Gregg Dancho said, “The support of donors, like those who contributed to the Kathy Brady Wolf Eyes Charitable Gift Fund, and the example set by someone like Kathy Brady are integral to the zoo’s ability to provide rich educational experiences. When you name a building after someone, you celebrate the life they lived and keep their memory alive. The Kathy Brady Education Center will be a legacy to her spirit, as a place for people to gather and share in Kathy’s love of animals and nature.”
