Learn to Pin Insects by Making a Shadow Box

How do you turn a beautiful butterfly, distinguished beetle, or creepy crawly into a work of art? Anyone from total beginners to experienced entomologists can start your very own insect collection: pinning your favorite bugs to study, collect, or just to make some cool decor (plus they make a great gift for that special insect fan in your life)! Come join SOFO and educator Moe Kennedy to make your very own pinned insect display to take home! Materials fee: $20/person. Limited enrollment.
