Description
Created by artist George Suyeoka, For the Young at Heart is a three-cornered bronze fountain featuring a rabbit, deer, squirrel with an apple, and two other animal figurative sculptures frolicking near the basin's three water spouts. Donated in 1988 by Betty Koenig Greenwald and Sally Koenig for the old children’s zoo, the sculptural drinking fountain was relocated to the Pritzker Family Children’s Zoo in 2006. The Lincoln Park Zoo also has two other Suyeoka fountains: the Elephant Drinking Fountain, and the Lion Fountain.
