Memorial Giving

Make a gift in memorium.

Honor and Remember

Honor or pay tribute to someone special in your life.

Commemorative Benches

Honor a special person, occasion, or pet with a commemorative bench at Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo. Commemorative benches provide a lasting gift, beautify Zoo grounds and enhance our guest experience.

We have several areas around the Zoo available for benches; choose something near a favorite exhibit or memorable spot. Benches are $2,300 for Zoo Members and $2,600 for Non-Members. All funds raised from this program support Zoo operations and educational programming.

For more information or to place your order over the phone, please call Joseph Scalzo at (203) 394-6573 or email jscalzo@beardsleyzoo.org

Bench Locations

We have over 30 locations around the zoo for you to choose. Below are a some of the location available for benches.
