Tour of Insectopolis: A Natural History

Sign up for a special 4:00pm tour of Insectopolis led by exhibit artist and acclaimed cartoonist Peter Kuper. Plus, entomologist Lou Sorkin will be on-site offering a hands-on encounter with live insects from his personal collection — yes, you’ll even have the chance to hold them!

Space is limited for the tour, so be sure to register here to reserve your spot.

Peter Kuper is the Eisner Award–winning author of Ruins and the critically acclaimed graphic adaptations of Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness and Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis. A regular contributor to The New Yorker, The Nation, and Charlie Hebdo, Kuper is also the co-founder of the long-running political comics anthology World War 3 Illustrated. Since 1997, he has written and drawn Mad Magazine’s iconic Spy vs. Spy series. Kuper has exhibited and lectured around the world and teaches Harvard University’s first class dedicated to graphic novels and comics.

Lou Sorkin is treasurer of the New York Entomological Society and also one of its primary meeting organizers. He recently retired  from his 42-year career in the Invertebrate Zoology Department at the American Museum of Natural History.
