Unleash your creativity at Painting in the Wild, a unique artistic experience for all ages, hosted by Cocoa Beach’s Trent Art Gallery!
Join a guided painting session inside the Zoo, where an artist will lead you step-by-step in creating your own masterpiece—all while immersed in nature and the sounds of the wild.
Your ticket includes all art supplies, an up-close animal encounter, and a stunning setting on the veranda overlooking Expedition Africa, where you may spot giraffes, zebras, meerkats, and more! Whether you're an experienced artist or just here for fun, you'll leave with your own painting and unforgettable memories.
Perfect for families, solo guests, or a creative outing with a partner—this experience is designed for everyone to enjoy!
