Savannah Children’s Museum invites the public to attend Bug Fest, the annual family-friendly celebration buzzing with bug-themed crafts, activities and workshops. The event will be held Saturday, April 23rd from 10 am to 1 pm at Savannah Children’s Museum, 655 Louisville Rd. Savannah, GA 31401.

“Our annual Bug Fest event is an absolute favorite among our visitors! Savannah Children's Museum transforms into a colorful land of squirmy, buzzy and crawly bug-eyed friends,” said Elisabeth Chappell, Education Specialist for Coastal Heritage Society. “Exploring and embracing our world of bugs and insects is the perfect avenue for educational fun with themes like science, environmentalism, music and art! Whether you think these tiny creatures are cute or creepy, the whole family is sure to have a great time!”

This year, attendees can learn about the importance of bees and other natural pollinators with the Coastal Empire Beekeepers Association, enter the Insectarium with Georgia Southern University’s Armstrong Campus Entomology class, learn about insectivores with Oatland Island Wildlife Center and enjoy bug-themed yoga with Savannah Yoga Center. 

Savannah Children’s Museum educators will also be delivering exciting programs and activities, such as the eat-a-bug club, insect activities and many other creepy-crawly programs throughout the day.

MAC Attack Food Truck and Savannah Square Pops will be on Sugar Beet Bluff picnic area, just outside of Savannah Children’s Museum’s entrance with delicious macaroni and cheese and fresh ice pops available for purchase. 

Admission to Bug Fest is included in the cost of regular admission to Savannah Children’s Museum, $10 for all guests 18 months and older. This event is FREE for Coastal Heritage Society members. Purchase your Bug Fest tickets online now on our website!
