The Harvard Museum of Natural History, 26 Oxford Street, Cambridge, will be buzzing with dozens of family activities on Saturday, March 5, from 9 – 5, as we explore the amazing world of insects and their relatives, spiders, crustaceans, and the many other creatures that comprise nearly 80% of all animals on Earth. Get close to live beetles, scorpions, and centipedes; listen to the sounds of insects communicating; experiment with robots that mimic bugs; and meet the Harvard scientists who collect and study these amazing creatures. Free with museum admission. Insect Planet is supported in part by the Cambridge Trust Company.
