One of our most popular annual events is Starry Night! From telescopes on our lawn to an indoor planetarium, and tons of activities to explore in between, we often have hundreds of astronomy enthusiasts gathering here at the Museum.

Every year we are proud to host fantastic speakers. In 2018, PBS “Star Gazers” host James Albury gave a wonderful presentation:
