Set for May 16, the 2009 Beastly Feast, Kongomana, will celebrate the entirety of the precious wildlife represented in Zoo Atlanta’s collection. Sophisticated elegance, unique locale and spectacular live and silent auctions have made the Zoo’s signature black-tie function one of the year’s most talked-about galas; expectations are that the event will raise over $1 million for the 12th year running.

Ford Motor Company returns as Presenting Sponsor for its 24th consecutive year.

The evening will begin at 6:30 p.m. with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres at fine Atlanta restaurant kiosks throughout the Zoo. A seated dinner, live music and dancing will follow in the Ford Pavilion, magnificently themed for one night only by the transforming creative talents of Tony Brewer & Company. Other special highlights include live and silent auctions featuring one-of-a-kind treasures and exciting travel and cultural opportunities.

Beastly Feast patrons support mission-critical conservation and education efforts, contributing directly to Zoo Atlanta’s reputation as a national leader in animal care and preservation of endangered species.
