Sparky’s Home, all 21 of them! Let’s Celebrate! October Events Planned!

21 Sparky the sea lion statues

Como Park Zoo and Conservatory has welcomed back all the Sparkys that were scattered throughout the Twin Cities!

Twenty-one custom, unique 6’ Sparky the Sea Lion statues, hand-painted by local artists and spread-out throughout the Twin Cities this past summer, are all now back home at Como Zoo. Visitors will be able to get their selfies with Sparky all in one place. Weekends in October will feature events centered around the statues including games, artists, giveaways, event partners, sponsors and more.  

A big thank you to all of our Summer of Sparky sponsors! SPIRE Credit Union,  Logix Transportation, a subsidiary of Berger Moving & Storage,  McGough , and KSTP.

      Unfortunately ZooBoo has been discontinued. Our replacement event Como Quest occurred in June and September of this year.
