You can hire a face painter for your party, they will need to set up in your private area that way it stays separate from the general public. (The Face painter does NOT have to be available to the general public unless you chose to offer it to everyone). There is no entry fee for the face painter, unless they are wanting to go around the animals then they will be required to pay.
