Color, Fly, Butterfly

04-18-2026 08-23-2026 DURING GENERAL ADMISSION & SPECIAL ENGAGEMENTS

The Cardinal Health Gallery will experience its own metamorphosis into an immersive butterfly coloring experience which invites guests to color their own butterfly and watch the butterfly creation come alive in the illustrated Pacific Island Water Garden.

Select and color a butterfly at a coloring station then scan the page at the kiosk to release the butterfly into the digital environment. Watch as the butterfly flutters around the garden and swoops down for a snack on a nearby flower!

Color, Fly, Butterfly opens April 18, 2026.
