“Float Like a Butterfly, Sting Like a Bee” is one of Muhammad Ali’s most iconic phrases, coined by his cornerman Drew \u201cBundini\u201d Brown.<\/p>\n

Inspired by this popular quote, the Muhammad Ali Center is working with the Louisville Zoo to support conservation efforts for monarch butterflies. Through the Louisville Zoo’s Monarchs & Milkweed Pollinator Habitat Project<\/a>, the Ali Center plaza is now home to a new garden of milkweed plants, allowing guests to learn more about the life cycle of a monarch butterfly and to develop a deeper connection with nature.<\/p>\n

The garden is now open to the public in the Ali Center plaza, just west of our building near the Ali Center fountain. This new pollinator habitat will allow monarch butterflies to safely nest during migratory patterns.<\/p>\n

Check it out at the Muhammad Ali Center during your next visit!<\/p>\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n
