Create beautiful and purposeful metal art to enhance zoo-goers’ experiences.
In 2018, we partnered with Lincoln Children’s Zoo to enhance the public-facing structures near the giraffe and red panda exhibits. The design process involved close collaboration with Lincoln Children’s Zoo, ensuring each piece met the Zoo’s specifications. Our team brought their vision to life, including a unique privacy fence designed to mimic the look of tall grass, as well as a new donor wall, draft barn, and event stage.
The chance to feed the giraffes and observe the playful red pandas are highlights of every visit to the Zoo. These major attractions, located at the entrance and exit, create lasting memories for visitors, especially children. The privacy fence, donor wall, draft barn, and event stage all contribute to making a great first impression and an unforgettable experience for all.
In 2022, Lincoln Children’s Zoo welcomed nearly 350,000 visitors and earned acclaim from Parents Magazine, ranking among the best children’s zoos. Before its expansion, many exhibits had remained unchanged for years. The Zoo now houses over 400 animals, including 40 endangered species. The expansion ensures families will continue to visit Lincoln Children’s Zoo again and again.
