Butterfly and Moth Taxidermy by Black Crow Taxidermy & Art
Hands-on workshop where participants create preserved butterfly art while learning about insect ecology.
The Butterfly and Moth Taxidermy Workshop by Black Crow Taxidermy offers a distinctive blend of science, art, and conservation. Led by a zoologist and former conservationist, the session begins with an introduction to butterflies, moths, and beetles—their anatomy, ecological roles, and significance in local ecosystems.
Participants will then engage in a guided, hands-on process to create their own butterfly display, typically in a dome or frame. All specimens are ethically sourced from farms, research centres, or public donations, ensuring the workshop emphasizes respect for nature while transforming preserved insects into meaningful art pieces.
By the end of the session, attendees will take home a personalised display. This experience falls under the “workshops & classes” category, combining educational insight with creative craftsmanship in an intimate studio setting.
