Butterfly Pinning
101

Join us for a hands-on workshop where you’ll learn the delicate art of butterfly pinning — a timeless method of preserving these stunning insects for display. In this class, you’ll be guided through each step of the process, from rehydration of the specimens to proper pinning techniques. Perfect for beginners and enthusiasts alike, this class combines elements of entomology, art, and natural history. All materials will be provided, and you’ll leave with your own beautifully preserved butterfly and the knowledge to continue the craft at home.

Note: All butterfly specimens are ethically and sustainably sourced!
