Butterfly Room at the Jamestown Audubon

The Jamestown Audubon hosts a Monarch Butterfly exhibit at the end of August. The dates may vary, so check the official website for the time and date of the event. Children and adults enter a room with free-flying Monarchs. Monarch caterpillars are displayed in all stages of development.

There is a special "hold a butterfly" area, where parents may assist young children with holding one of the beautiful butterflies. The butterflies are tagged and released, so scientists can track their migration.


Location:

1600 Riverside Road, Jamestown, NY 14701

Date:

Generally held the last weekend in August.
