Monarch

  • Moores School of Music, Houston, TX (map)

in partnership with The Juilliard School

North American monarch butterflies undergo an annual migration of epic proportions: from the forests of Canada all the way to the mountains of Mexico. A “super-generation” of butterflies complete the northward journey, following their source of sustenance, milkweed, all the way North.
