Courtyard Adventure: Monarch Mania

The Mueller Family Outdoor Courtyard at the Lancaster Science Factory is home to hundreds of (very hungry) caterpillars feasting on our milkweed plants. And now, they’re ready to become Monarch Butterflies! Visit us soon to take a special Courtyard Adventure to spot all of the caterpillars (larvae), chrysalis, and monarchs you can find!

Learn about these important insects and how you can attract them to your garden!

Free with Admission. All ages.

Courtyard Adventure events are weather permitting. Monarchs are preparing to migrate, so this activity is subject to change if they head south!
