Wed, 01 Apr 2026 00:00:00 -0500

Curious about stargazing but not sure where to start? Join us for a fun, hands-on introduction to telescopes designed for families and absolute beginners! You'll learn to align and aim a telescope, what all that astronomy jargon really means, and about equipment options (and costs!). Weather permitting, participants will use a simple reflector telescope to spot Jupiter and its moons, and get a glimpse of what today’s digital telescopes can do. Limited space available.
