Humans aren’t the only creatures that go to work. Bugs have all sorts of jobs from eating dead leaves to pollinating trees and flowers to even making materials for clothing! Learn more about the amazing jobs bugs do to support our environment. Join us online or in-person Saturday, June 5 from 10-4 at the Illinois State Museum in Springfield for crafts and activities all about the world of bugs. See bugs from our collection and hunt for bugs on the lawn.
