The Conservatory of Flowers’ “Fly Trap Theater” | Paxton’s Gate

Submitted by the Event Organizer

The Fly Trap Theater is a fun presentation brought by staffers from the Conservatory of Flowers for kids:

• Look at carnivorous plants up close and learn about how they attack and eat bugs.
• To top it off, kids will love seeing the fly traps dissected, their trapping mechanisms looked at up close and personally.
• We’ll create our own bug and plant puppets replicating traps seen in nature that use gummy slime, sticky stalks, hairy triggers, and dark mazes – or using our imaginations to create totally new carnivorous creatures.

Until October 31, Paxton Gate is offering 15% off plants and gardening supplies at both of their stores with a ticket stub from the Conservatory of Flowers. Also, The Conservatory is offering 2 for 1 entry if you show your Paxton Gate receipt dated during the run of the “Chomp 2” carnivorous plants exhibit.
