Are you an Entomologist? What the heck is that? It’s a person who studies insects! Join us as we learn all about insects with the United Titanium Bug Zoo from The Ohio State University’s Department of Entomology.

The OSU Bug Zoo’s mission is to turn “eww” into “ooh!”—promoting curiosity, busting myths, and helping everyone see just how amazing insects and other arthropods really are. Discover their hidden superpowers and learn how these tiny creatures help keep our planet healthy!

Get ready to: Meet live bugs up close (if you’re brave enough to say hello!), Snap a family photo with our favorite insect ambassadors, create your own ladybug mask or beaded butterfly, play the Pollinator Game with our flower friends, and hunt for insects on a scavenger adventure through the beautiful trails at the Appalachian Forest Museum.

When you’re finished buzzing around, take home an ODNR field guide and a handheld magnifying glass to keep exploring the bug world back home. Come explore, learn, and play—it’s guaranteed to be an un-bee-lievably fun day!
