Keynote Speaker:
Raymond A. Mendez Invertebrate Exhibits or Getting Some Feces Into Everything Raymond Mendez founded Work As Play in 1980 after spending 14 years at the American Museum of Natural History as an Entomologist and then senior principal artist in Exhibits. WAP was initially focused in the communication industries. He was principal in projects such as Silence of the Lambs, the ad for Alien, and Ronald MacDonald. Quite by accident his love of mole-rats led him to work in zoos. His passion for mixing conservation story-telling with fun led him to work on Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Trail of the Elephants in Australia and the Kid’s Zone in Tacoma. He is a vocal proponent of personalized interpretation and the power of visitor participation. He now serves on the AZA CEC advisory board. He will discuss future goals for invertebrate exhibits in Zoos. |
