The Akron Zoo will be presenting “Wild Times with Jungle Jack Hanna” at the Akron Civic Theatre on Thursday, April 18 at 6:30pm. This is an event that children of all ages can enjoy, as it features animals and an entertaining personality who will share funny stories and educational tidbits. It is also a fundraising event to benefit the Akron Zoo.
Hanna is a television personality, author, conservationist and Director Emeritus of the Columbus Zoo & Aquarium. Several animal ambassadors from the Columbus Zoo & Aquarium will accompany him during the show to help entertain and educate the crowd.
The 75-minute show is sponsored by the Robert O. Orr & Annamae Orr Family Foundation, and proceeds will go towards the Akron Zoo’s new exhibit, the Mike & Mary Stark Grizzly Ridge, which is set to open in late summer this year.
Tickets are available by calling the Akron Zoo at 330-375-2550. The Akron Civic Theatre is located at 182 S. Main Street in Akron. For more information on this event, please visit akroncivic.com or www.akronzoo.org.
