Organization Highlight: Denver Butterfly Pavilion
This week we are highlighting the Butterfly Pavilion in Denver, Colorado! Click to read about the work they do and how you can get involved!
What?
The Denver Butterfly Pavilion is a non-profit organization that focuses on providing a hands-on learning experience for all. Since 1995, they have focused on educating people on invertebrates and the importance of their seemingly invisible but vital roles in our lives. They currently house over 1,600 free-flying butterflies and a vast array of other insects. Funded solely by donations, the Butterfly Pavilion works around the clock to ensure that the insects receive care for years to come.
The Mission
Why Is The Butterfly Pavilion Important?
The Denver Butterfly Pavilion gives guests the chance to interact with animals that live in their backyards but mostly go unseen. The pavilion also offers guests the opportunity to see these animals' impact on the Earth's ecosystem. This hands-on learning experience will have guests leaving with new knowledge and understanding about these often disregarded animals.
