The HMNH live honeybee hive is humming again, along with a new spring exhibit devoted to the entire bee clan.


Examine specimens of bees from around the world – a surprising diversity of forms, sizes, and colors. Learn about their varied life patterns, from the solitary to super social. Look for clues in an interactive game about bee names, designed to reveal the secrets of their evolution. Watch the busy life inside a hive, look for the queen, track worker bees as they exit and return with pollen baskets full from visits to early spring blossoms, and uncover the mystery of honey production.


This project was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
