Discover the Fascinating World of Butterflies

Join us at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery (TMAG) for The World of Butterflies, a special exhibition celebrating the diversity and beauty of butterflies on our planet. Featuring stunning displays of rare and exotic specimens, this exhibition is a must-see for nature lovers and curious minds alike.

Discover the unexpected side of butterflies in this vibrant exhibition showcasing hundreds of specimens from around the world.

Often seen as delicate, butterflies are in fact bold survivors - clever mimics, skilled travellers, and masters of transformation. Learn how colour, camouflage and behaviour help them survive.

Trace the history of butterfly collecting, from 19th-century explorers to modern-day citizen science. Learn how scientific names help us understand species and their evolution, and why the word butterfly has stranger origins than you might expect.

The exhibition also considers the threats butterflies face - from climate change to habitat loss - and what can be done to help protect them.

Whether you're fascinated by nature or simply love the beauty of butterflies, this exhibition will change the way you see them.
