Gateway to Science’s butterfly exhibit has returned! The painted ladies have come out of their chrysalid’s and are flying around the habitat waiting to entertain you. Each week our butterfly population will grow as more butterflies emerge from chrysalid. Stop by to take a look.

The second generation of butterfly larvae have now become chrysalides! There are now more than 20 chrysalides suspended from branches within our Butterfly Exhibit. Visit our gallery soon, and you just might witness one of them emerge into a winged butterfly!

It’s Field Trip Season at Gateway to Science!
Posted by: | Comments
Throughout each school year, thousands of students visit Gateway to Science on class field trips, but Spring is an especially busy time in the gallery! A field trip is a great way wrap up the year. Teachers from preschool to college have been reserving their piece of the fun.
Our interactive exhibits are designed to supplement classroom learning by demonstrating specific science concepts. One of the favorite exhibits is a rocket launcher that launches bottles as high as the ceiling. And you don’t want to miss seeing our live butterflies!
There’s still space left for your class, so give us a call!
