Winter Sky Festival

Event Description

Enjoy the splendor of the night sky as we host a star party in our MOAS Entry Courtyard, highlighting the upcoming winter celestial objects that are in view. We will have a wide variety of telescopes set up outside to observe the crescent Moon, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, Pleiades, the Orion Nebula, and much more. Throughout the evening we will be performing live outdoor sky tours with green laser pointers, and there will be astronomy programs and a holiday-themed laser show held inside the Lohman Planetarium. 

The outdoor portion of the event is free and is weather permitting. Lohman Planetarium shows are free for members, $5.00 per show for future members, and free for children 5 and under. 

Parking is limited. Planetarium shows have limited seating and are first-come, first-served.
