Why not become a Gold Card member now and receive unlimited access to the Zoo!
If you decide to become a Gold Card member on the day of your visit, its just an extra £14 for children to join. This gives you unlimited visits to the Zoo for a whole year and lots of extra benefits and discounts too good to miss!
All materials are supplied for a 20 minute session of guided tuition. Wet wipes are available for you to clean up with.
This is a great confidence builder for any child that loves to draw while giving them the opportunity to understand how the primary colours work. All in the amazing surroundings of Colchester Zoo.

Although children can be left at the art sessions, it is required that a form is filled out with details of name, age, email and choice of portrait to draw on the day. All children must be accompanied by a responsible adult within the zoo at all times.

Hahnemühle FineArt is pleased to be part of such an exciting project which will bring art to many people and add a whole new perspective to the zoo experience. Our pastel velour paper will be available for the artists - a high quality acid free paper with a beautiful velour surface, and one of our most popular papers which we are sure will be enjoyed and lend perfectly to the subject matter.
