Flutter over to the Museum of Discovery and Science’s Food Forest for a Butterfly Release during the museum's Asian-Pacific American Heritage Celebration. Immerse yourself in the magic of nature while exploring the vital role these delicate pollinators play in our ecosystems and cultural heritage. 

From their humble beginnings as caterpillars to their breathtaking transformation into vibrant butterflies, learn about each step of their fascinating life cycle. Celebrate the beauty of these creatures and the Asian-Pacific traditions that honor them. Then, watch in awe as they take their first flight into the Florida sky—a true spectacle of nature’s design. It’s love at first flight, and an experience you won’t want to miss. The event is presented by Truly Nolen Pest Control,

Children can also visit and investigate ocean marvels in MODS’ latest traveling exhibit, Voyage to the Deep – Underwater Adventures. “Seas” the day and embark on the legendary Nautilus submarine with Captain Nemo for an interactive journey of underwater exploration! The exhibition was created and developed by the Australian National Maritime Museum, an Australian Government entity. Flying Fish manages the exhibit tour. It is locally sponsored by Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. 

The Butterfly Release, Asian-Pacific American Heritage Celebration, exhibits and all other activities are included with Museum admission.
