As others have said, no, the exhibit is not protected from the rain. We also are required to close during lightning or heavy storms.

Took advantage of this add-on while visiting the Florida Museum of Natural History. You probably never get to experience butterflies as up close and personal as here. Recommended.
Took my 7 year old niece and had a great time. Butterflies from all around the world, beautiful greenery, lots of fish in the ponds, benches to sit and see the butterflies feeding, and a little place to eat before or after your visit.

Fantastic place with all species of butterflies! Absolutely beautiful and worth the trip! Highly recommend it!
This was a great experience for us. We had a great learning experience and interaction with the butterflies. They even landed on us at times making for beautiful pics.
There's no better place to inner act with nature and get an education on butterflies and the rainforest!
Got to see a butterfly release. Spoke with a staff member, Amber, who was extremely knowledgeable about the museum.
Great trip for the whole family. Lots to see and do. The butterflies are really amazing and there are lots of hands on activities for kids
