    July Planetarium Show:
    Cartooning Constellations

    July 2, 9, 16, 23, 26 & 30 – (Tuesdays and the 4th Friday)

    7:00 PM

    On clear, dark nights we humans have long looked up at the stars to “connect the dots” and make cartoon pictures. These sky pictures tell stories, mark the passing of the night, and the changing of the seasons, and show our way on Earth and through space. Enjoy ancient and modern constellations through the eyes of celebrated children’s author and star cartoonist H.A. Rey, the creator of beloved Curious George.

    Tickets are $5/person for non-members and FREE for members
