Monarch Butterfly Celebration
September 20
FreeNorth America’s most mysterious butterfly usually flies through Edmond, OK in late September and early October. This beautiful insect gains our admiration, but it needs our help for future survival. Learn more about the monarch and how YOU can help using simple tools and practices. This flutter-by (come-and-go) program, for children and adults, will be both educational and fun, including a meet-and-greet with real butterflies, crafts, and games.
A special pollinator Storytime at 11:00 am.
Monarch Butterfly Celebration is organized by the museum director, Amy Stephens, who has spent 25 years training and assisting in monarch research. To learn more, view a video of Amy Stephens and Edmond’s Mayor Darrell Davis as they discuss techniques for assisting monarch butterflies this fall. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVvfTbhWYpM
