About the Event

Join the Bug Gals for a free interactive meet-and-greet focused on insects and arachnids. They will share fascinating facts while presenting live specimens. Audience members will have the opportunity to hold or gently pet some of the bugs. The Bug Gals will discuss what makes these creatures unique and how they can benefit humans, and will provide opportunities for both kids and adults to face their fears, demonstrating that creepy crawlies aren’t as frightening as they seem. People of all ages are welcome to attend!

No RSVP is required. For all ages, bring the whole family.

For disability-related accommodations, please call (213) 228-7430 at least five business days prior to the event.
