Skywatching: Fun with Telescopes

Join us for the first Skywatching program of 2022. There will be hands-on activities and telescope viewing. Mercury will be in our sights.
Event is free, but registration is required.
SOME SPECIFICS:
• Observatory Park will be dark, but please do not bring a bright flashlight; bring a red light as it will be less intrusive to other watchers. Adjust the brightness of electronic devices.
• PARKING: Limited parking for those with accessibility tags is available onsite. Parking is also available at the field at the corner of DeSellum & Rt. 355 – 2 blocks from the park.
• Portable bathrooms will be available. There is no running water in the park. Alcohol is not permitted at events in City parks.
Events at Observatory Park could be cancelled or modified at the last moment if conditions, including inclement weather or Covid restrictions limit the event.
