$80 members / $90 nonmembers
Open to children with adult supervision and those ages 12 and up.
Explore impressive insects by preparing and preserving a sustainably sourced blue morpho butterfly of your own. You will receive a set of illustrated instructions, tools, and your finished specimen to display at home. With newfound knowledge, explore the arthropod gallery to take in the subtle nuances of Earth’s invertebrate species.
This is a fun and engaging activity that can be enjoyed by anyone. Students under 12 must be accompanied by an adult chaperone who can work with them, at no additional charge. If the chaperone wishes to complete their own project, a second insect must be purchased through a separate registration.
