Presented with The Insect Asylum, this class at Trailside Museum of Natural History in River Forest walks students through the process of entomology: what it is, why it matters and how specimens are prepared. Participants pin real cicada specimens for display. It runs Sunday, November 22, from 10 a.m. to noon, costs $5 and is limited to ages 14 and up, so it is for teens with an interest in science. Space is limited and registration is required.
