Butterfly Shadowbox Workshop

Create a one-of-a-kind piece of natural art in this special butterfly shadowbox workshop. Participants will design a decorative shadowbox using an assortment of dried flowers, decorative papers, miniature embellishments, and other curated materials before adding two preserved butterflies from our own Butterfly Bungalow exhibit.

You're also welcome to bring your own decorative items if there's something meaningful or specific you'd like to incorporate into your design. Small pressed flowers, charms, papers, or other lightweight embellishments are welcome.
