As a part of the High Line’s Insectageddon, all-ages are invited to walk and explore the insects that live at Freshkills Park with the Staten Island Museum’s Director of Natural Sciences Colleen Evans and a Freshkills Park biologist. Pariticpants will use nets to catch and learn about insects up close and see what makes Freshkills an ideal habitat!
Insectageddon is a day-long festival featuring site-specific programming at partner sites around the world. Inspired by artist Cecilia Vicuña and culminating the High Line’s month-long horticulture celebration, Insectageddon seeks to both reflect on and raise awareness for our interconnectedness with the insect world.
