Undoubtedly starting out as a food source for early primates, insects have been adopted into the philosophy, religions, and folklore of multiple human cultures around the globe. From the celebration of insects like butterflies and scarab beetles in art and material culture to the domestication of honey bees and silk moths for agriculture and industry, the relationship of humans to insects is inexorably connected. In this virtual exhibit you can explore items from the Hudson Museum&#8217;s collections representing cultural perceptions of insects from around the world.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-19021_8bf514-1f .kt-block-spacer{height:20px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-19021_8bf514-1f .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-19021_8bf514-1f\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kt-sc19021_b86133-ff .kt-sc-imgcol, .kt-sc19021_b86133-ff .kt-sc-textcol{min-height:450px;}.kt-sc19021_b86133-ff .kt-split-content-img{max-height:450px;}.kt-sc19021_b86133-ff .kt-sc-textcol{padding-top:24px;padding-right:24px;padding-bottom:24px;padding-left:24px;margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kt-sc19021_b86133-ff .kt-sc-imgcol, .kt-sc19021_b86133-ff .kt-sc-textcol{min-height:450px;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"aligncenter kt-sc19021_b86133-ff wp-block-kadence-splitcontent\"><div class=\"kt-split-content-wrap kt-sc-media-side-left\" style=\"grid-template-columns:50% auto\"><div class=\"kt-sc-imgcol kt-sc-imgcol-bg-contain kt-sc-img-side-left\"><figure class=\"kt-split-content-media-image wp-image-container-10427\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/umaine.edu\/hudsonmuseum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/275\/2013\/03\/hm506a.jpg\" alt=\"Image of a ceramic bowl with a wide, tall neck.
