Fairy Tale Ending

Beautiful flappers, glass masterworks go bye-bye

You may think you have to be a little frilly girl to enjoy something like Desert Botanical Garden’s Spring Butterfly Exhibit. But we're willing to bet that even big, brawny men will be dazzled by the enclosure that holds hundreds of gentle butterflies. Walk carefully (so you won't trample the poor things) as they flutter all around you, and, if you're really special, land right on you.

The butterflies, along with the awesome “Chihuly: The Nature of Glass” exhibition, go bye-bye after Sunday, May 31, so go prance around the Garden one last time before they’re gone. Just know that we'll make fun of you for acting like a pansy princess after it's all over.


March 7-May 31, 9:30 a.m.-5 p.m., 2009
