About this Event

Join us for an exclusive Giant Rice Paper Wing Butterfly Pinning Workshop at The Insect Asylum!
Step into the delicate world of this ethereal species, celebrated for its large, gossamer wings and striking black-and-white patterns.

Limited seats are available for this special workshop, giving you the rare opportunity to learn the art of preserving and admiring the elegance of the Giant Rice Paper Wing Butterfly.

Known for their graceful flight and almost translucent wings, these butterflies look as if they’ve been painted in ink on parchment. Their bold yet delicate patterns make them a favorite among collectors and artists alike.

This immersive workshop will guide you through the pinning and preservation process, ensuring you leave with a beautifully prepared specimen to treasure. Connect with fellow butterfly enthusiasts, build new skills, and take home your own stunning pinned butterfly at the end of class. 🦋✨

Accessiblity note: please be aware that our classroom spaces are not wheelchair access at this time. We are happy to accomodate with an accessible classroom space for insect pinning on a case by case basis. Please email us with accessiblity needs before the class at [email protected]

All participants under 18 must come with a guardian; guardian/observer tickets are available at check out.

Tickets are non-refundable, but we’re happy to exchange them for a different workshop if you let us know in advance.
