Butterflies in Living Color! will feature a full immersion experience by allowing visitors to walk through a garden while exotic butterflies fly freely around you. There will be hundreds of butterflies on display and arriving weekly to ensure that you will see many wonderful varieties as they change throughout the season.
The hours of the garden will be from 10am-5pm with last tickets sold at 4:30pm. Tickets are $2.00 and support butterfly conservation on a global level. Your visit to the garden provides a unique experience as you leisurely stroll while watching the fluttering butterflies collect nectar from the plants and the feeding stations scattered throughout the walkway so if you are into photography bring your camera because there are always great opportunities for close up shots of these beautiful creatures. Also, there is a large window to allow you to see into the quarantine room and watch the emerging butterflies from their chrysalis. As a special treat for our visitors, once a day we will release the new butterflies into the garden and provide time for you to be able to interact with our staff and ask any questions you may have.
There are many ways to support the Butterflies in Living Color! exhibit. As a seasonal exhibit that will be open yearly there are multiple sponsorship opportunities within the exhibit including benches, water fountains and quarantine facilities. You may also purchase a donor brick, which will be placed along the path inside the garden, and commemorate a special occasion or honor a loved one.
We are also offering a special Breakfast with the Butterflies behind the scenes opportunity. For more information click here.
