Hello Entomology,

The San Bernardino County Museum is requesting our assistance at an Arthropalooza outreach event. They would like us to host a table with some of our outreach material including live insects (especially walking sticks and mantids), display drawers of pinned insects, and informational brochures. Please reply to me directly within the next week and/or sign up on the Department Outreach spreadsheet that Emilia shared if you are available to take a shift at or host our table, so I can confirm our participation for one or more days.  Here are the details:

Saturday & Sunday March 23rd-24th 2024 – 11AM-4PM
San Bernardino County Museum
2024 Orange Tree Lane, Redlands, CA 92374
https://museum.sbcounty.gov/event/arthropolooza-the-ultimate-bugfest-3/

Saturday March 30th 2024 – 11AM-4PM
Victor Valley Museum
11873 Apple Valley Rd, Apple Valley, CA 92308
https://museum.sbcounty.gov/event/arthropolooza-the-ultimate-bugfest-4/

Last year we welcomed almost 3000 people to this event at our Redlands site alone – this multi-day event seeks to educate visitors about arthropods and insects through partnerships that can share educational literature/information, fun crafts, and up-close live insect experiences.

Thank you,
