The Franklin Institute welcomes guests for a free evening of educational experiences that include the museum’s famous permanent exhibits, special programs and shows and hands-on activities from Philadelphia Science Festival partner organizations, including the Academy.

Take a closer look at live invertebrates and talk with fellow bug enthusiasts! Touch real specimens and learn what you can do in your own backyard to make your world more bug-friendly.

This program is a part of The Philadelphia Science Festival, a 10-day community-wide celebration of science that takes place annually in the spring.
