Zoom in on insects

What makes a beetle different from other insects? And is a spider really an insect? Join us for a close-up exploration of insects and other arthropods using magnifying glasses, with a special focus on three endemic beetle species from the Azores! This activity is open to everyone, and families with children are invited to complement the experience by creating their own insect using natural elements.
