Cambridge Moth Ball More than 300 people came together under the stars at Kingsley Park in Cambridge, MA on Wednesday evening for the 2025 Cambridge Moth Ball, a National Moth Week celebration co-hosted with Boston Birding Festival, Earthwise Aware, Cambridge Wildlife Arts, Mystic Charles Pollinator Pathways, the City of Cambridge Fresh Pond Reservation, and other local partners. This year’s theme focused on micro-moths, the tiny, often overlooked species that play a vital role in ecosystems and climate resilience. Families, artists, scientists, and nature lovers came together for hands-on activities, moth observation, art-making, and talks by author Cara Giaimo and entomologist Dr. Jane Waters. We also learned to use tools like Buggy and iNaturalist to contribute to real-time biodiversity research.
