Bugs & Blooms
Saturday, July 19th
from 10AM – 2PM

Formerly Ladybug Day – now bigger, buggier, and better than ever! Join us for Bugs & Blooms, Magnolia’s expanded summer celebration of the incredible creatures that call our gardens home. This beloved family event—formerly known as Ladybug Day—returns with even more hands-on learning opportunities, nature-based fun, and STEM activities for curious kids and their grown-ups.

While we’re no longer releasing ladybugs, we’re broadening our focus to highlight the rich biodiversity of the Lowcountry—from pollinators to reptiles, birds, worms, and beyond.

Dance to kid-friendly beats from DJ Jenny. Float through clouds of bubbles with the Bubble Lady Sparkle with Glitter Girl’s enchanting body art, play garden games, meet wildlife experts, and explore interactive discovery stations. Dress up as any bug or bloom for a treat!
It’s a joyful day of science, nature, and play—perfect for the whole family. Bring your wings & wonder!

Location: Magnolia’s Carriage House on the Ashley River
