Bug Weekend at Toledo Museum of Art

Step into the whimsical world of bugs and creatures during Bug Weekend at the Toledo Museum of Art, inspired by the special exhibition Rachel Ruysch: Nature Into Art.

On June 14 and 15, the museum’s campus comes alive with art, science, and nature-themed fun for all ages. From dazzling circus stilt walkers and aerial acrobats to insect-inspired face painting, there's something for every curious mind to discover. Little explorers can join Bugs in the Brush: A Ruysch Tour for Young Explorers, a docent-led tour designed just for kids, or dive into hands-on art activities provided by the Family Center. Whether you're inspecting butterflies with the Toledo Zoo, observing Madagascar hissing cockroaches with Imagination Station, or picking up a Bug Bento Box to enjoy in the sunshine, your weekend is sure to be buzzing.

This is a perfect outing for families and even a unique way to celebrate Father’s Day with creativity and curiosity.
