Join us for a fun and educational experience as we celebrate National Learn About Butterflies Day! In this hands-on program, we'll dive into the fascinating world of butterflies.

After learning about these delicate creatures, you'll have the chance to create your very own butterfly-themed, eco-friendly wind chime using recycled materials. Not only will you take home a beautiful craft, but you'll also gain a deeper understanding of sustainability and the importance of protecting our environment.

This program is designed for Tweens and Teens to discover the interconnectedness of nature and how even the smallest creatures can make a big difference. It’s a perfect way to nurture creativity, curiosity, and environmental awareness!

Registration is required. This program requires fine motor skills and is recommended for ages 9-18.
