Scholastic Bowl is the main fundraising event for Brazosport Planetarium and relies on the entry fees, individual and corporate sponsorships for this event to help fund its educational activities throughout the year.
Date: February 2024
- Adult and high school student teams
- Four members per team
- Registration is $100 per team
Astronomy Night
Each Fall and Spring, Brazosport Planetarium hosts Astronomy Night. Our local advocational astronomers set up their telescopes and hands-on astronomy activities in the parking lot of The Center for the Arts & Sciences. When the skies are clear, participants are encouraged to view celestial objects in our night sky. In addition to the telescopes and related activities, the planetarium will present short shows periodically throughout the events. This is event takes place “rain or shine” and is FREE to the public!
