Insect Discovery Lab [Summer Reading 2026]

Plant a seed and foster a love of nature. Join the Gilroy Library as we explore the fantastic lives of beetles, millipedes, hissing cockroaches, walking sticks, whip scorpions and more! Presenters from SaveNature will introduce you to the diverse world of insects and teach you about their key role in the web of life. You will even have the opportunity to touch and hold some of these creatures.

Space and attendance is limited.
