As children we would touch bugs with our bare hands, let them crawl along our palms. We don’t inherently fear them; its a lesson taught, sometimes a lesson learned. This youthful excitement is the most enviable slice of innocence. BugFest is here to help the innocent and the fearful gain an appreciation for the wonderfully diverse and fundamentally essential world of bugs.
