The annual Austin Kiwanis Butterfly Festival began in 2018 as one-day chance to walk with hundreds of butterflies, contained in a temporary exhibit, set with local flowering plants provided by a local nursery. Once inside the butterfly habitat, nectar sticks held by our “butterfly wranglers” will draw the beautiful, delicate creatures to families and kids of all ages for closer observation.
The club planned to hold the next event in the fall of 2019, but was approached by Winn Montessori to hold an event in spring 2020 instead. Plans were placed on hold during the pandemic, but we were thrilled to bring it back in 2023 by co-hosting the Winn Butterfly Festival each year.
Activities for kids are held on the campus and attendees can see the dozens of painted lady butterflies up close in the school library vestibule with blossoming plants provided by Down Home Ranch serving as a temporary habitat.
Winn Butterfly Festival – April 26, 2025 10am – 2pm with a release at 1:30pm Winn Montessori School 3500 Susquehanna Ln, Austin, TX 78723
Food, fun, school tours, and dozens of painted ladies butterflies!
