Education
A public display area is open to the public during the week, Monday through Friday, from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 pm. There is no charge for admission. Many of our displays are geared toward children. Children and adults enjoy our live arthropod zoo and the working beehive that is on display.
Museum Displays
Many of our displays are geared toward children. We fit a lot of insect information into a small display area at the Frost Museum.
