The Minnesota Zoological Garden is requesting proposals for a qualified, third-party exhibitry design team to curate, collaboratively plan, develop, design, and provide production support (through project completion) for the interpretive features in the forthcoming Minnesota Zoo Center for Wildlife Conservation—an immersive, multi-use space dedicated to highlighting the Zoo’s global conservation impact over the last 50 years.
The selected exhibitry design vendor will develop a build-ready visitor-centered experience that incorporates engaging physical design elements, digital content, audio visual features, storytelling, and a deep integration of the Zoo’s conservation legacy. Design will pertain to primarily the interior and minimally to the exterior of the space. This scope of work will include exterior naming signage, plus likely interior naming signs and a donor recognition feature. The Zoo will use the pricing design/design development package from this scope of work to solicit bids for an interpretive fabrication and installation contractor.
An optional pre-proposal meeting will be held at 9:00 am, Central Time, April 10, 2026.
