The 36th annual Bug Fair at the Natural History Museum. Photo by Mike Guerena.
There is a wide selection of exhibitors, presentations, crafts, live insects, exhibits of pinned specimens, and all kinds of bug-related things to buy, including live insects. You can have close-up encounters with all manner of creepy, crawly things, while enjoying live music (The Buggles! The Beatles! Iron Butterfly! Buddy Holly and the Crickets! Scorpion! Adam and the Ants! Insect Surfers! Sorry, I went off on a tangent…).
While I plan to avoid the “hands-on activities, it is a popular, can’t miss event! You still have a chance to check out the uggie bugs Sunday from 9:30 am until 5 pm. for only $15 per adult. Discounts for kids and seniors. Free for Museum members. Advance tickets required for the general public. Get yer tickets here!
