THE COLORFUL WORLD OF BUTTERFLIES

The Lewiston Public Library will be hosting The Colorful World of Butterflies in Callahan Hall on Wednesday, August 5th at 5:30PM for kids ages 5 – 12, siblings welcome.

Join us to see wonderful slides of our local butterflies, presented by Jerry Schneider, the Butterfly Guy. Jerry will answer questions such as: How can we attract more butterflies to our back yards? What are some ways we can conserve butterfly habitat?  What does a good butterfly garden look like?  When, how, and why do Monarch butterflies go to Mexico?

Jerry will bring displays of butterflies and moths, cocoons, and sometimes caterpillars. Kids will then be able to create their own colorful butterfly t-shirt to take home!

Registration is required as there are only 40 available spots.
