If walking back and forth across Grant Park catching musical acts all weekend isn't your thing, head over to the Peggy Notebaert Nature Muesum for their fifth annual "Bugapalooza" Aug 2. The museum's bug zoo will be teeming with insects and experts to educate you on what they eat and how they settle into their place in the environment. There will be bug-themed arts and crafts for the kiddies and an eating contest where the key ingredient is bugs. (2430 N. Cannon Dr., 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Purchase tickets here.)
