Bugging Out at Frost Science: Explore Tiny Titans this Spring 2025

Step into a hidden world filled with mystery, wonder, and fascinating creatures at Frost Science Museum’s newest temporary exhibit, Bugs. Located in Downtown Miami, this cinematic and immersive exhibition transforms the tiniest creatures on Earth into larger-than-life ambassadors, allowing visitors to experience life from a bug’s perspective. Get up close with six giant “bug-bassadors” and explore their unique senses and abilities. From the delicate precision of a jewel wasp’s hunt to the stunning camouflage of an orchid mantis, Bugs brings the science of these amazing creatures to life in ways that are as entertaining as they are eye-opening.

Dive into the exhibit’s hands-on, interactive activities and witness bug superpowers in action. Navigate through the vibrant garden of an orchid mantis, defend a hive from intruders, or marvel at the intricate physics behind dragonfly flight. With four immersive theaters, the exhibit places you at the heart of dramatic moments in a bug’s life, offering a perspective rarely seen – or imagined.

What’s more, Bugs showcases how the study of these tiny creatures is driving innovations in fields like engineering and nanotechnology. By connecting the dots between biology and technology, you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for how much we can learn from the tiniest teachers.

Bugs is now open on the first floor of the Frost Science Museum in the Hsiao Family Special Exhibition Gallery, where it will remain on view through Sunday, April 20, 2025.
