COAL VALLEY, ILLINOIS (April 17, 2023) — This event will feature entertainment by renowned show band Maggie Speaks.
Guests will enjoy an unforgettable evening of music, while also contributing to the vital work of the zoo. The concert will feature special appearances by Niabi Zoo staff and the Foundation Board, to provide an up-close look at the organization's new master plan.
