                "description": "We are working hard to bring Chicago its first Insect and Taxidermy Museum that focuses on connecting to the beauty of nature in a non-traditional sense. During these events we will still engage all of our senses to foster an unbelievable amount of growth and excitement.  At The Insect Asylum we encourage you to explore, as we do. Once we open our doors for good we are hoping you will engage with the exhibits and develop a true sense of belonging with nature. This is an artistic representation of vintage work so not everything will be perfect, but we see beauty in the imperfections. Our mission is to allow people to get excited, to learn and to grow. We understand that inspiration takes flight in many forms. Please come here to get inspired, to create, and to connect with a beautiful community! Also, please keep in mind The Insect Asylum is a self-funded endeavor. This labor of love will take some time to complete. Any and all funds we raise help us  bring more  to the community! We want to make our project affordable to everyone, so if you can afford to sponsor entrance for someone else please reach out. If you need to be sponsored to participate, please reach out or visit our website. We want to be able to include everyone. Donations of any kind are always welcomeHope to see you there,Nina Salem Owner/Artist"
