About The Insect Asylum :

• Opened in 2022, the Insect Asylum is a nonprofit taxidermy & entomology museum featuring a collection of over 4,500 insects & several (adoptable) critters.

• I don't imagine we'll be seeing many of the live critters during the party, but their normal business hours allow visitors to touch & hold some very interesting creatures !

• The museum mixes art with nature, & holds educational events for both kids & adults.
