Light up your night with facts and stories about FIREFLIES.

Join us live for a special evening event all about those beetles that light up: fireflies! Also known as lightning bugs, these insects use bioluminescence to send messages to others. We'll share some stories and also learn some facts about these summer evening friends from Dr. Mike Raupp of the University of Maryland Department of Entomology.
