Did you know that March 14 is Learn About Butterflies Day? Celebrate these vibrant insects and their moth cousins with the Royal Alberta Museum! Join RAM, along with expert entomologists from the Northern Forestry Centre to learn about the fascinating butterflies of Alberta.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how researchers pin and preserve specimens for scientific study and display.
