New Children's Exhibit - BUGS!

The world of bugs… insects, spiders and everything creepy crawly!

Be the first to see the new exhibit just for kids!

Enter the room of a child who loves bugs - bug collecting tools, bug posters, everything bugs!
See nine LIVE specimens of bugs from all over the world, from Africa to the Sonoran Desert to your back yard - scorpion, centipede, millipede, and spiders!

What bugs came west with immigrants along the Oregon Trail?  View a covered wagon  model with horses and settlers and their extra traveling companions – fleas, lice, weevils, and more.

Learn about good bugs and their conservation and Oregon's state insect- the Swallowtail Butterfly.

September 26 - February 1 in the Museum's Brooks Gallery
