Butterfly Pavilion, Invertebrate zoo in Westminster, Colorado.
The Butterfly Pavilion houses numerous butterfly species in a controlled tropical environment where visitors walk among free-flying insects and observe their behaviors.
The Butterfly Pavilion opened its doors on July 1, 1995, becoming the first stand-alone invertebrate zoo in North America dedicated to arthropod education.
Educational programs at the pavilion connect visitors with invertebrate biology through hands-on experiences, demonstrations, and guided presentations by expert staff members.
The facility operates daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, offering discounted admission rates for students, seniors, military personnel, and AAA members.
Visitors can interact with Rosie the tarantula in the Survival exhibit, which showcases various arthropod species and their adaptation mechanisms.
