At EastProv Hospitality, we love sharing exciting events for families—not just in East Providence, but throughout Rhode Island! That’s why we’re buzzing with excitement about “A Bug’s World” at the Roger Williams Park Zoo, an immersive seasonal exhibit running April 11 through August 9, 2026.
Become a tiny explorer and see the outdoors from an insect’s perspective—wander among supersized caterpillars and beetles, crawl through massive honeycombs, and dodge the dreaded Venus flytrap. This hands-on, interactive experience brings the busy lives of backyard bugs to life while showing why even the smallest creatures play a big role in our environment—and how we can help protect them.
See Your Backyard Like Never Before
From crawling ants to buzzing bees, A Bug’s World magnifies the tiny critters that are all around us. Kids (and adults!) can get up close and personal with the wonders of nature, exploring the ways insects pollinate plants, recycle nutrients, and keep ecosystems healthy. It’s not just fun—it’s an eye-opening lesson in how every little creature matters.
Learning Through Play and Adventure
The exhibit is designed to be hands-on and interactive, perfect for curious minds. Whether climbing through giant honeycombs, navigating a forest of towering leaves, or learning about the hidden life of insects in your own backyard, visitors leave with a new appreciation for the small but mighty creatures around us.
Plan Your Visit
A Bug’s World is a special exhibit and not included with general zoo admission, so a separate ticket is required.
