Event Details

Grades 1 to 6 

Join us for an unforgettable day of stargazing from the comfort of Port Washington Public Library as we journey through the wonders of the night sky in a portable planetarium. Tom Barry aka "That Planetarium Guy" will use state-of-the-art planetarium software to point out what the February night sky will look like and how to navigate it like a pro. Subjects covered include constellations, mythology, navigation, planets, lunar phases, and meteor showers.

Kids under 3rd grade must be accompanied by one adult. Space is limited. Tickets available in the Children’s Room starting February 2.
