Museums for All Admissions Program
The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens is committed to providing experiences that connect and engage our guests to wildlife. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to come nose-to-nose with amazing animals and learn about our natural world. We seek to be inclusive to all members of our community, regardless of economic status or other limiting factors. The Living Desert is dedicated to providing accessibility to low-income children and families.
The Living Desert is proud to participate in the Museums for All program, which is designed to make sure everyone can experience the best museums and cultural attractions, at a low, affordable price.
To broaden access to everyone, The Living Desert is offering a special, reduced rate to SNAP Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cardholders. Cardholders can simply show a valid, SNAP EBT card and valid form of photo ID to receive a special admission price of $3.00 per person for up to 4 people.
