Art and Science of Arachnids Traveling Exhibit opens

America’s largest touring arachnid exhibit has arrived at the Las Vegas Science & Natural History Museum! The Art & Science of Arachnids is an interactive exhibit celebrating the fascinating world of spiders, scorpions, and their relatives. From hands-on activities learning web-weaving and silk science, to learning the Tarantella Dance and enjoying macro photography, museum visitors will get a chance to dispel myths about arachnids and learn about conservation and the important role they play in our ecosystem.

Included: live arachnids, arachnid sculptures and artwork, and web-weaving demonstrations and interactive stations. Also, discover the roles arachnids play in medicine, music, and folklore.
