Opens July 8

Examine the artistry of small, but mighty bark beetles in this new free gallery exhibition. Created by Jiri Hulcr, an Assistant Professor in the University of Florida School of Forest Resources & Conservation, this 10-piece exhibit features high resolution images of bark beetles alongside examples of their 3-D habitats. This is a rare opportunity to see the intricate signatures these insects leave behind after colonizing the inner tissues of trees.
