Pollinators: Keeping Company with Flowers
Coming May 21-July 16, 2023
Pollinators: Keeping Company with Flowers is an exhibit exploring the relationship between flowers and pollinators. The exhibit features over 70 photographs of pollinators in wild and garden settings, primarily taken by Northern California plantsman and naturalist John Whittlesey. These images vividly portray the intriguing lives of many kinds of pollinators. While many people recognize the European honeybee as an important pollinator, Keeping Company with Flowers primarily highlights native pollinators, which play a key role in the ecology of California.
