For the seventh year in a row, the Kansas Museum of History and Topeka Zoo have teamed up for the monarch butterfly migration! These beautiful insects migrate through Kansas during the last two weeks of September and we will be waiting for them! We want you to join us for FREE monarch tagging classes that are open to the public.These classes are held at the Kansas Museum of History and are fun for the whole family! Each class will be from 5:30pm-7:30pm. The first portion of the class is a quick outdoor 15-minute lesson on monarch migration, conservation, and how to catch them. Then, guests are invited to help us catch, tag, and release as many monarchs as we can! The zoo will provide at least one butterfly net for each family to borrow; you’re welcome to bring a net too if you have one. Please meet in the Kansas Museum of History main parking lot.
