Exhibition "The Pleasures and Pains of Pollination"
27.09.2022
The University of Tartu Natural History Museum's temporary exhibition "The Pleasures and Pains of Pollination" focuses on insect pollinators and their importance.
The exhibition introduces the diversity of insects that pollinate plants, their fascinating adaptations, and also the threats posed by human activity to both insects and the plants that depend on them. The exhibition reminds us that the preservation of this wealth is now largely in the hands of humankind.
In the outdoor area of the University of Tartu Botanical Garden, information boards show which plants and insectivores have adapted. The locations of the information boards are marked on a leaflet available at the Botanical Garden Visitor Centre.
Due to coronal limitations, the exhibition was launched online on the University of Tartu Natural History Museum's Facebook page on 4 June 2021.
The exhibition was supported by the SA Environmental Investment Centre.
Until 28 Feb

Plant and insect life are intricately intertwined, where one cannot survive without the other and the rest of life depends on this relationship. Through photographs and interactive exhibits, the exhibition opens up a rich world of insectivores, where the nature-loving visitor has no choice but to express his or her amazement.
