Most of this new permanent exhibit traces the relationship between butterflies and their environment over several millennia. That part is free. But the museum charges to enter the Butterfly Pavilion—where visitors walk along a see-through passageway and watch butterflies pollinate, reproduce, and fly—except on Tuesdays. Plus, pressing your nose against the window is free any day.
