Step into the fascinating world of entomology with our hands-on bug pinning program! This workshop offers participants an opportunity to learn the professional techniques used to preserve and display insects for scientific study and personal collections.

 We will guide you through a hike, presentation, and exploration in the anatomy, diversity, and ecological roles of insects while mastering the skills needed to prepare and pin specimens with precision and care. Whether you’re a budding entomologist, a seasoned naturalist, or simply curious about the intricate beauty of the insect world, this program is sure to inspire.

Materials will be provided, but we encourage participants to bring small boxes to safely transport their pinned specimens home afterward.
