Behind the Glass: A Special Visit to the Fountaine-Neimy Butterfly Collection

Experience an exclusive, behind-the-scenes visit for a close-up viewing of the world-renowned Fountaine-Neimy Butterfly Collection. Featuring over 22,000 exquisitely preserved specimens collected by the extraordinary Victorian adventurer, Margaret Fountaine, we hope to focus this visit on viewing spectacular swallowtails, the elusive scarce vapourer, and beautiful magpie moths.
