iDigBio will be represented by iDigBio project staff Kevin Love, Joanna McCaffrey and Principal Investigator Larry Page at the Florida Museum of Natural History “ButterflyFest” on October 13 & 14th, 2012. This annual festival is dedicated to increasing awareness of Florida's butterflies as fun, fascinating ambassadors of the natural world. iDigBio staff will be promoting inquiry about biodiversity and the grand challenges of the digitization community while advancing a call to action for the conservation and preservation of backyard wildlife and habitats.

Please join us with your friends and family to participate in an interactive display and activity to digitize museum specimens. In a process developed by iDigBio collaborating institutions, you will be guided by iDigBio project staff through workflows for specimen imaging; the resulting images will posted to the iDigBio Facebook page.
