The Science of Interpretation!

Guest Engagement Fellows at Lincoln Park Zoo are part of a 9 month fellowship program for early career adults interested in interpretive educational programming. Join Guest Engagement Fellows Lupe and Josh in exploring how they have advanced their skills in program facilitation and design. Through hands-on activities and conversation, Fellows will introduce guests to the field of Interpretation and how they use the knowledge of their audience to connect them with stories about conservation, care, and community at Lincoln Park Zoo.

Scientists, researchers, and collections managers are behind the scenes every day, uncovering new information and taking care of our collection.

During Meet a Scientist, you can find them in the Grainger Science Hub. They'll discuss their work and share real items from the museum’s collection of nearly 40 million objects. From collections care to field work, and dinosaurs to ecology, there’s a world of science to explore.

Visit the Science Hub on select weekdays for an up-close look at what our researchers do every day.
