Insectarium and Butterfly Pavilion

Zeema the zebra longwing butterfly fluttered down towards her favorite vine and landed on a leaf. The sun felt heavy as it edged the sky and evenings were beginning to get chilly. Zeema slowly flapped her wings and made preparations to look for another home. This one would be empty soon (~145 hours).

Don’t let this Earth day pass you by uncelebrated. Instead, join us at the Insectarium for a night of fun and fundraising to help save our precious museum! Three levels of fun await our guests, with music from DJ Jaji and dancing, and specialty cocktails from small crafters Blue Coat Distillery. Get an inspiring taste featuring local businesses with food from King’s Corner and more, and a dessert table with the delectable delicacies of Velvet Sky Bakery.

Enjoy some up close and personal encounters with various insects and exotic animals as you explore through our enchanted pavilion to discover live performers and marvel at the fantastic ice art of Eric Wagner of Ice Sculpture Philly as his gorgeous, interactive creation takes shape throughout the night.

As you wander, feel free to make a bid at our silent auction on an array of art, antiques, offers and products from local businesses, as well as some fantastic creations using our very own butterflies.

All of the funds from the tickets and auction items will contribute to our efforts to save our fantastic museum, so bring a guest and invite your friends!
