In 2008, Minnesota’s voters passed the Clean Water, Land, and Legacy Amendment (Legacy Amendment) to the Minnesota Constitution.  The Legacy Amendment dedicates funding to protect, enhance, and restore wetlands, prairies, forests, and wildlife habitat; support our parks and trails; protect water quality, and preserve Minnesota’s arts and cultural heritage.

Thanks to support from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund created by the Legacy Amendment, the Minnesota Zoo is expanding its programming in a number of areas as it solidifies its place among Minnesota’s premiere cultural institutions.

Below is an overview of some of our Legacy funded projects. Click on each link for more information.
