Insectapalooza returns after two-year break, celebrating bees once again.

The 17th annual Insectapalooza festival will take place on October 22 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Stocking Hall, featuring a room with around 100 free-flying butterflies. Cornell entomology students and faculty are preparing various exhibits and hands-on activities to showcase the interactions between insects and humans. Attendees can expect to see hundreds of arthropod species, including live beetles, spiders, and bees, along with preserved specimens from the Cornell University Insect Collection.
