Toasting the Zoo

It's the jam

By Alison Sieloff

Published on July 16, 2008

You recall how the Saint Louis Zoo kept you entertained as a little one, but having fun with the animals isn’t just child’s play. For proof head over to the Forest Park institution tonight, and see how the zoo puts smiles on the faces of adults (hint: alcohol is involved). From 6 to 10 p.m., Jammin’ at the Zoo offers live music from six bands/musicians — including acoustic-rock act the Tiny Cows and DJ Needles, who spins hip-hop among other genres — and all kinds of food, frozen drinks, wine and beer. You can even sample the last two for free from 6 to 8 p.m.! For more information call 314-781-0900, and to buy your tickets, which cost $10, visit www.stlzoo.org; picnic suppers ($13.50 to $18.50) are also available for purchase through the website.
