Description
Explore the night sky with the aid of professionals and a fascinating telescope on the museum’s outdoor observation deck (if sky conditions permit). Plus, these special monthly events offer FREE planetarium shows and hands-on indoor exhibits. The program is recommended for families with kids ages 7+ due to both the nature of the activities and the evening start time. Registration is not required but is requested through EventBrite. This helps the museum plan for the number of people. Drop in anytime during the event.
Note that the museum exhibits are not open during these FREE Star Parties. Parking in the lot is $6/vehicle.
FREE Planetarium tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis at the front desk. Registering does not reserve tickets, so it is best to show up early. Showtimes: 9:40, 10:10, 10:40pm.
