Explore amazing arthropods from an evolutionary perspective with a hands-on look at an impressive species!

Utilizing sustainably sourced specimens, students will learn about arthropod development and anatomy by preparing and preserving a five-horned rhino beetle of their own.

Each student will receive a set of illustrated instructions, tools, and their own finished specimen to display at home.

With newfound knowledge, students can explore the museum’s arthropod gallery to observe the many nuances of Earth’s invertebrate species.

These are fun, engaging activities that can be enjoyed by all ages.

Students under age 12 must be accompanied by an adult chaperone who can work with the child, at no additional charge.

If chaperones wish to complete their own project, a second specimen must be purchased through a separate registration.
