It all started with a
dream
to paint a huge butterfly,
and that's what Bess Taylor did.
Working with the NC Museum of Natural Sciences in Whiteville,
with funding from the Friends of NCMNC,
Bess made her dream
a reality.
And then,
it grew.
Thanks to the Whiteville Rotary Club and other civic groups
sponsorship for the 2nd - 4th butterflies
the dream expanded to a
butterfly trail.
Currently there are 7 butterflies on the trail.
Each butterfly has specific meaning for the location
and the group that sponsored the art.
Bess is passionate about education, conservation,
and helping people experience learning through art.
Spreading the love opens up possibilities and
you too
can be involved in the art along the trail.
As you journey along the trail,
take a photo with the butterfly
and tag it with #whitevillebutterflies
