Butterfly Pinning Class at The Nightmare Expo

In this class you'll learn how to rehydrate butterflies and properly pin them. You will receive two butterflies to pin on your own. For the second portion of the class, we will learn how to frame them with a pre-pinned butterfly and get to have some fun with backgrounds.
​
This is a great course for beginners or people who are looking to refresh their skills! All butterflies are ethically sourced - We love insects too much to have it any other way.


Taking place during THE NIGHTMARE EXPO on January 17th 2026 at Proctors Theatre in Schenectady, NY.

Only 20 seats available!

A seat in this class is $137 - your ticket includes all the supplies needed to complete the project AND general admission into the expo! You will leave the class with 3 butterfly specimens.
