Mothbusters: Demystify the Night

Join us as we kick off National Moth Week, which is held annually the last full week of July — with registered events in all 50 states and over 90 countries across every continent except Antarctica — to celebrate the beauty, life cycles, and habitats of moths around the world. At the Garden, Mothbusters will use crafts, walks, and talks to help participants learn more about these mysterious cousins of butterflies. The evening will end with a night-lighting experience where you will view resident moths as they are attracted to lights.
