SUMMARY:Bugs: Outside the Box
DESCRIPTION:Bugs: Outside the Box\nMay 25 – September 8\, 2024\nBaker Exhibit Center\nWhere can you see a butterfly with a five foot wingspan\, or a longhorn beetle with antennae more than twelve feet across? The answers can be found amongst the enormous sculptures on display in BUGS: Outside the Box! \nScientifically exact\, with a keen attention to detail\, the exhibit features a virtual army of giant bugs with one aim in mind – educating the public and shining a light on museum collections\, taxonomy\, and the power of magnification. \nAmong the highlights of the exhibit is a rarely seen long-arm beetle more than ten feet in height\, a collection of heavily armored stag beetles with impressive jaws and horns as long as your arm\, and an insight into the amazing intricacy of the physiology of each insect on display. Alongside these impressive works of art is the insect in question represented at life size\,  and detailed information on the life habits\, location\, and other facts unique to each insect and its family. \n  \n  \n  \nBugs Outside the Box is supported in part by Camilla Calnan Photography\, Gasperson Moving & Storage; Mosaic Community Lifestyle Realty\, The Laurel of Asheville\, RomanticAsheville.com Travel Guide\, Smoky Mountain Living Magazine\, and The North Carolina Arboretum Society.
