Butterfly Pinning 102: Common Morpho

Description

Sunday, October 18, 2026 | 1 - 3 pm

Embrace the beauty of the common morpho (Morpho peleides), one of the world’s most well-known butterflies, in this hands-on workshop with lepidopterist and Butterfly Exhibit Manager, Clara Aus. We’ll cover the morpho’s life cycle, anatomy, behaviors, and adaptations (like their iridescent blue color) before we begin the guided pinning session. Clara will guide participants through the entire pinning process, from how to rehydrate specimens to pinning and positioning the wings. All our common morpho specimens are ethically sourced from the Butterflies Bloom exhibit after they completed their full natural life cycle. Participants will go home with all the materials for assembling their final specimen shadowbox, and the necessary tools to continue pinning more specimens on their own. Let’s appreciate these special insects and honor the life they lived by continuing to share their beauty!
