Ever wanted to get nose-to-nose with a praying mantis?  Pet a giant pumpkin millipede as long as your hand?  See how far a giant lubber grasshopper can jump? 

Children will get an opportunity to interact with live insects this Saturday when representatives from Anderson Pest Solutions bring their Insect Zoo to the Museum's Art Studio.  

The experts from Anderson Pest Solutions will introduce children to nature's Good Guy bugs, such as Hercules beetles, giant lubber grasshoppers, giant pumpkin millipede and more.  Find out how, as nature's recycers, these insects contribute to our environment.

This event is FREE to DCM members and/or with Museum admission.  Pre-registration is not required.

Studio Drop-Ins are activities in the Art Studio that are FREE to DCM members and/or with Museum admission.  Pre-registration is not required.

Activities are on-going throughout each session and will explore alternating math-, science- and art-related discovery projects that support a different learning theme each month. Some sessions provide the opportunity to take something home with you.

All sessions allow you and your child the opportunity to explore and experiment with a variety of materials.
