You are warmly invited to visit us for a 20-40 minute planetarium show for your school group or community group, by appointment. We can tailor the show length to fit your needs. The show covers the basic ideas of astronomy from constellations to the Moon to planets to galaxies. If there is some special content that you would like, then feel free to ask. The planetarium has 54 seats and is wheelchair-friendly. We respectfully mention that no food or drink except water is allowed in the theater.
