The Art
Exhibition Dates: August 12 - September 28, 2023
Over 90 Colorado artists submitted 170+ artworks including sculpture, paintings, collage, tile, textile, stained glass, jewelry and more.
Artworks were selected by a jury committee of volunteers — including sciences, artists and insect educators. Join us for an exhibition of artworks that celebrate both the biodiversity of insects, as well as artists' range of creative style and use of media. Through the perspective of these artists, you’ll learn to see insects in a different way. Join us for artist talks, workshops, and events to see how you can be part of the solution.

This Week’s Featured Artist
Artist: Andy Olson
Title: La Araña y El Alacran
Medium: Wood and metal sculpture
From the Artist:
Sculptural diptych of native Coloradan arachnids. Cut and carved out of wood to match the camouflage colors of the Aphonopelma Coloradan Tarantula and the Striped Bark Scorpion (literally named for its wood color). Made with razor edged wood carving tools, each piece embodies a delicate yet dangerous aesthetic that also matches the arachnids in nature and form. The sharp points reflect the venomous character of the arachnids and their characteristically sharp bites, pinches and stings.
