You know the zoo is home to lions, tigers, and bears, oh my! Focus: Hope is a nationally recognized civil and human rights organization founding in
1968 after the Detroit civil disturbance. Over the past half-century, it’s developed programs to boost early learning, workforce development, food justice,
and much more.
Now, families across Metro Detroit have a chance to attend the Second Annual Day at the Zoo Event. It features early-access to the Detroit Zoo before
it opens for the day, a one-mile family walk, prizes, refreshments, and interactive activities for all ages.

The event begins at 7:45 a.m. and includes:
- Exclusive early admission to the Detroit Zoo
