WELCOME!

The Zoo Lady has been bringing professional, theatrical face painting to Central Illinois since 2002—turning everyday events into colorful, unforgettable experiences for kids and adults alike.

Led by Mickey Lower, The Zoo Lady, our team combines high-level artistry with impressive speed, painting 20–25 detailed designs per hour, complete with professional grade glitter. With our fully trained Zoo Crew, we’re equipped to handle everything from small parties to large school and corporate events with ease.

Event organizers trust us to keep lines moving while still giving each guest their own special moment in the chair. The result? Happy kids, smooth events, and artwork that stands out.

When you book the Zoo Lady, you’re getting more than face painting—you’re gaining built-in buzz. We serve hundreds of happy faces each month, and our active social media presence helps bring extra visibility to your event, especially during peak seasons. Zoo Lady Facebook Link
