The Butterfly House is celebrating earth's living lanterns – fireflies!
At the Firefly Festival, families will join staff for guided tours, discover the secrets of glow-in-the-dark animals, find out ways to help fireflies around your home, and learn to speak firefly with the firefly code game. You'll wrap up the night by joining The Butterfly House entomologists in the park to see real fireflies.
Designed for families with children of all ages. 7 to 9:30 p.m.
At The Butterfly House in Faust Park, Chesterfield. More information and to register: butterflyhouse.org
