Riley Weiss

The Oregon Zoo Foundation

From the day eight years ago when we walked into the office of the Oregon Zoo's design director and volunteered our services, we have had a solid bond with Portland's leading visitor attraction and cultural treasure. The relationship has been mutually beneficial and continues to this day on both a business and personal level. Our collaborations include close work with staffers from the Zoo's foundation as well as team members from events, marketing, education, development and exhibits. We are proud to be associated with the Oregon Zoo and The Oregon Zoo Foundation.

Program Synopsis

From our initial assignment to develop look and feel for the Amazon Flooded Forest exhibit, Riley Weiss has invested emotionally and professionally in the success of the Zoo. Our redesign of the member magazine has won accolades from members as well as the national zoo community. In the six years we have been designing and producing the quarterly publication, zoo membership has grown by nearly 12,000 people. Our design efforts also support two wildly successful annual events – Zoolala and ZooBrew – with integrated marketing programs to drive attendance, fundraising, and membership growth.
