Bring all your favorite Valentines for a night of music, sweet treats, crafts and special animal encounters at Blank Park Zoo's Sweetheart Dance.

Join us for a one-of-a-kind celebration at Blank Park Zoo as we officially welcome our new mayor—Oscar the Porcupine! After his recent election win, Oscar is ready to meet his constituents. Guests will have the chance to get up close with Oscar, and enjoy an educational program all about this prickly politician. Get creative with porcupine-themed activities, including making your very own Oscar-inspired porcupine. It’s a day of learning, laughter, and celebrating our favorite spiky mayor.
