Burke Museum Bug Blast 2008!
This family-oriented event took place Sunday September 28, 2008. Museum visitors had the chance to see tiny microscopic bugs, touch large live bugs, and get close up to bees and bug-eating plants.
David Gorge Gordon, "The Bug Chef," provided a "creepy culinary tour" complete with bug tasting. Other hands-on activities included "seeing like a bug" through special bug-eye glasses, mask-making, and watching glassed-in ant and honeybee colonies.
