We Are All Connected
During the Butterfly House & Aquarium’s closure, we want to continue serving you by inspiring connection, hope, learning, and peace.
Appreciation for nature’s beauty brings us all together.
Let us at the Butterfly House & Aquarium continue to honor that connection
through the hope that a newly emerged butterfly represents and the peace that a gliding jellyfish provides.
We look forward to serving you online in the variety of ways highlighted below.
Your generous purchases, contributions, and social media engagement will allow the Butterfly House & Aquarium to continue caring for our butterflies and marine life now and into the future.
We look forward to serving you during our closure and to welcoming you back in when we reopen.
We are truly grateful for your continuous support!
Plan Your Visit For When We Reopen
All new & renewed memberships will become active when we reopen. Current memberships will be credited the amount of time the facility was closed.
