With a focus on bee keeping this year (due to Philly's historic place in the beekeeping world), Bug Fest 2010 at the Academy of Natural Sciences will feature a man with a "bee beard", bug cuisine, bee dancing, live insects, a bug walk, hands-on demonstrations and activities. Talk to entomologists and even play Bug Ball! If the bugs start to get to you, there's also dinosaurs, dioramas and live animals to entertain and inform. Or just swap the creepier insects for the butterfly exhibit. Bug Fest runs Saturday Aug. 14th and Sun. Aug 15th from 10am-5pm, free with regular admission or membership.
