Death by Natural Causes will introduce you to the range of &ldquo;animal, vegetable and mineral&rdquo; dangers that lurk in their everyday lives. Through a collection of specimens, text and interactives, visitors can see what can cause a death, either directly or indirectly, from the natural world. Poisonous, venomous and toxic are just a few of the terms that will be clarified, and things you interact with almost daily will be used as examples &mdash; mushrooms, snakes, spiders, and even common foods! Old wives&rsquo; tales and urban myths will be debunked, as visitors travel through five general areas of rich graphics, compelling visuals and surprising specimens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Step inside and explore your fears, be they animal, vegetable or mineral, but tread lightly&hellip; You never know what treacherous creatures crawl just below your feet.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-button-flex\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hmns.org\/exhibits\/death-by-natural-causes\/\" aria-label=\"\" class=\"btn\" target=\"_self\"><button class=\"alt\"> Get Tickets<\/button><\/a><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t.the-everything-block {\n\t\twidth: 1400px;\n\t\tmax-width: 100%;\t\t\n\t}\n\t.everything-flex {\n\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\talign-items: flex-start;\t\n\t}\n\t.everything-flex .image-box {\n\t\tflex-shrink: 0;\n\t}\n\t.everything-flex .image-box .img-box {\n\t\theight: 0;\n\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t}\n\t.content-box { width: auto; }\n\t.content-box .everything-title {\n\t\tmargin-bottom: 8px;\t\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-sub-title {\n\t\tmargin-bottom:\t32px;\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-content { margin-bottom: 48px;}\n\t.content-box .everything-content ul { padding-left: 32px; list-style-type: disc; margin-bottom: 32px; }\n\t.content-box .everything-content ul li ul { margin-bottom: 0; }\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex {\n\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\talign-items: center;\n\t\tflex-wrap: wrap;\t\n\t\tcolumn-gap:24px;\n\t\trow-gap: 24px;\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex a:not(.btn) {\n\t\tpadding-bottom: 8px;\n\t\tborder-bottom: 1px solid var(--serengeti); )\t\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex a:not(.btn):hover {\n\t\tborder-bottom-color: var(--monarch);\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex a.linkicon svg {\n\t\tmargin-bottom:-3px;\t\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-contact { margin-bottom: 32px; }\n\t.content-box .everything-contact a {\n\t\tfont-family: 'Ringside Regular Bold';\n\t\tfont-weight: 400;\n\t\tcolor: var(--monarch);\t\n\t}\n\t@media screen and (max-width: 1200px) {\n\t\t.everything-flex {\n\t\t\tmax-width: 100% !important;\n\t\t}\n\t}\n\t@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {\n\t\t.everything-flex {\n\t\t\tdisplay: block;\t\t\n\t\t}\t\n\t\t.image-box, .content-box {\n\t\t\twidth: 100%;\t\t\n\t\t}\n\t\t.image-box { margin-bottom: 48px; }\n\t}\n<\/style>\n<section class=\"the-everything-block\" style=\"padding: 32px 0 64px;margin: 0px auto 0px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-flex\" style=\"width: 100%;column-gap: 54px;\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"image-box\" style=\"width: 224px;\"><div class=\"img-box\" style=\"padding-bottom: 100%;background-image:url(https:\/\/www.hmns.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Mossy-frog-header.jpg);background-size:cover;background-position:center center; backgroud-repeat:no-repeat;\"><span role=\"img\" aria-label=\"\"><\/span><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t<div class=\"content-box\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-title\"><h3>Extreme Animals Alive!<\/h3><\/div>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-sub-title subhead\">Shape-shifting, mind control, invincibility and more!<\/div>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-content\"><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Explore the unique adaptations that make Earth&rsquo;s creatures fearless and fascinating, beautiful and bold.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Step into a graphic novel aiming to reveal the strange and wonderful specializations animals exhibit to give them a leg up on the competition or evade predators. <em>Extreme Animals Alive!<\/em> invites you to get up close with a variety of critters, both familiar and unknown.

Through his distinctive aerial perspectives, Stillings captures dramatic large-scale energy projects, vast mining operations, and the stark natural beauty of a desert often scarred by human activity. <br \/><br \/>Why are Chile and the Atacama Desert significant? The copper and lithium in our computers, cars, and smartphones likely come from Chile. As the global leader in copper production and the second-largest producer of lithium, Chile&rsquo;s environmental practices are directly tied to our daily lives. <br \/><br \/>Stillings&rsquo; interest in the human-altered landscape and his environmental concerns are principal pillars of his work. His imagery elicits a critical dialogue about meeting society&rsquo;s needs and desires while seeking an equilibrium between nature and human activity. ATACAMA shows how photography can serve as a source of inspiration, motivation, and information, while reminding us that a carbon-constrained future is crucial to a responsible, sustainable approach to life on Earth.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-button-flex\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hmns.org\/exhibits\/atacama\/\" aria-label=\"\" class=\"btn\" target=\"_self\"><button class=\"alt\"> Get Tickets<\/button><\/a><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<div id=\"aed\"><\/div>\n\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#title-white-bg {\n\twidth:1400px;\n\tpadding: 64px 0 96px;\n\tmargin: 0px auto 0px;\n\tmax-width: 100%;\n}\n.title-box-wbg {\n\ttext-align: center;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section id=\"title-white-bg\">\n\t<div class=\"fw-bg\" style=\"background:white;\"><\/div>\t<div class=\"title-box-wbg\"><h2>Adult Education Programming<\/h2><\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t.the-everything-block {\n\t\twidth: 1400px;\n\t\tmax-width: 100%;\t\t\n\t}\n\t.everything-flex {\n\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\talign-items: flex-start;\t\n\t}\n\t.everything-flex .image-box {\n\t\tflex-shrink: 0;\n\t}\n\t.everything-flex .image-box .img-box {\n\t\theight: 0;\n\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t}\n\t.content-box { width: auto; }\n\t.content-box .everything-title {\n\t\tmargin-bottom: 8px;\t\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-sub-title {\n\t\tmargin-bottom:\t32px;\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-content { margin-bottom: 48px;}\n\t.content-box .everything-content ul { padding-left: 32px; list-style-type: disc; margin-bottom: 32px; }\n\t.content-box .everything-content ul li ul { margin-bottom: 0; }\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex {\n\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\talign-items: center;\n\t\tflex-wrap: wrap;\t\n\t\tcolumn-gap:24px;\n\t\trow-gap: 24px;\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex a:not(.btn) {\n\t\tpadding-bottom: 8px;\n\t\tborder-bottom: 1px solid var(--serengeti); )\t\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex a:not(.btn):hover {\n\t\tborder-bottom-color: var(--monarch);\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-button-flex a.linkicon svg {\n\t\tmargin-bottom:-3px;\t\n\t}\n\t.content-box .everything-contact { margin-bottom: 32px; }\n\t.content-box .everything-contact a {\n\t\tfont-family: 'Ringside Regular Bold';\n\t\tfont-weight: 400;\n\t\tcolor: var(--monarch);\t\n\t}\n\t@media screen and (max-width: 1200px) {\n\t\t.everything-flex {\n\t\t\tmax-width: 100% !important;\n\t\t}\n\t}\n\t@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {\n\t\t.everything-flex {\n\t\t\tdisplay: block;\t\t\n\t\t}\t\n\t\t.image-box, .content-box {\n\t\t\twidth: 100%;\t\t\n\t\t}\n\t\t.image-box { margin-bottom: 48px; }\n\t}\n<\/style>\n<section class=\"the-everything-block\" style=\"padding: 32px 0 64px;margin: 0px auto 0px;\">\n\t\t<div class=\"fw-bg\" style=\"background:white;\"><\/div>\t\t<div class=\"everything-flex\" style=\"width: 100%;column-gap: 54px;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content-box\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-title\"><h3>BTS: Cockrell Butterfly Center<\/h3><\/div>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-sub-title subhead\">April 2 | 6:30 pm<\/div>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"everything-content\"><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">On this exclusive tour led by Butterfly Center staff, you will visit the containment room and rooftop greenhouses&mdash;areas not open to the public&mdash;where staff cares for the Museum&#8217;s caterpillars, butterflies, other insects, and food plants for the butterflies.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Includes a tour of the Cockrell Butterfly Center rainforest and Brown Hall of Entomology.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Ages 15+ NO EXCEPTIONS.

There are so many great reasons to incorporate native plants into your yard or garden. They are hardy and can survive local extremes of heat or cold, drought, and wind. Once established, native plants usually require little or no irrigation or fertilization. They are resistant to many pests and diseases so you will not need pesticides or herbicides. Native plants when mixed together can provide year-round color and beauty, and provide food and homes for the birds, bees, and butterflies.<\/p>\n<p>Join us as HMNS hosts the <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastalprairieconservancy.org\/in-town-opportunities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coastal Prairie Conservancy Volunteer Days<\/a><\/u> in the 9-Natives Garden on <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lp.constantcontactpages.com\/ev\/reg\/64fp7te\/lp\/5220227b-d4e9-4d88-b023-106808a68e72\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">April 13th<\/a><\/span> and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/coastalprairieconservancy.eventcalendarapp.com\/9-natives-showcase-garden-volunteer-day-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">May 11th<\/a><\/span>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flight School<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Soar into first class with the Cockrell Butterfly Center&rsquo;s Flight School!

We&rsquo;ve earned this role by adhering to clear and simple values and a focused mission. Over 30 years ago, two Fourth Ward activists, Deacon Malcolm McLemore and Deacon Jean Cameron, started a community garden in their neighborhood along with Dr. Bob Randall, one of the founders of Urban Harvest. Their garden grew and grew. The simple act of growing food brought neighbors together to share recipes and seeds, to solve problems about crime and blight, and to eat and celebrate together. The seed that was planted by the success of this garden led to the creation of Urban Harvest seven years later. Since 1994, Urban Harvest has cultivated communities of gardeners, educators, farmers and neighbors to launch thriving gardens and farmers markets.
