About Cross Pollination: The Art & Science of Local Natural History, a Norris Center Open House

The theme for this year's open house is "Cross-Pollination, the Art and Science of Natural History." The Norris Center has teamed up with renowned local nature illustrator Maryjo Koch and will display her illustrations alongside many of the Norris Center’s extensive collections, including the Randall Morgan Pollinator Collection.

Also on display will be fresh fungus specimens, butterflies and moths from around the world, mammals, birds, and reptiles, and graduate student research involving the collection.

Koch will give painting demonstrations at 1 p.m. both days. A raffle of prizes, including local field guides and classes at Koch’s studio, will take place each day at 2 p.m. Other merchandise, including hats, note-cards, tote-bags, field guides, and Koch’s original artwork, will be for sale. All sales benefit the Norris Center.
