95% of all animals on earth are arthropods!
The 23rd Annual BUG FAIR at the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History held on May 16th & 17th was a fabulous success
A special thanks to those who took the time to visit INSECT WORLD while at this event
"Recession or not, it appears that the Bug Fair can still fill The Museum's halls with ecstatic visitors that are eager to take in the programming we deliver. It gives me the greatest of pleasure to email you with news of our 23rd annual success
This past weekend was without question the busiest Bug Fair ever and it ran as though it was effortless. Over the two days we welcomed 14,239 patrons through our doors and broke the 7,000 mark for the first time on Sunday
It is still great to see that bugs can compete with all of the other things that southern California has to offer
"
Let's do it again May 15 and 16, 2010!
