Pollinator Day

Spring is almost here and the air is a-buzz with our pollinator friends!

Join us for “Pollinator Day” where exhibitors will teach us how to conserve and celebrate our pollinator populations through engaging activities. 

Enjoy games and activities about pollination, monarchs, mosquitoes, and bees!

Special exhibitor stations will showcase information about how pollinators not only contribute to one of every three bites of food you eat, but also support healthy ecosystems that stabilize soils, support other wildlife, and clean the air.

This event is included with museum admission or MMNS Foundation Membership. Scroll down for add-on opportunity with Purple Pug Painting.
