Stars on the Blanco!
Sat, February 07, 2026
Join us for stories in the stars AND a star party with the Hill Country Astronomers!
Join us at Blanco State Park to hear some of the stories and legends behind our favorite winter constellations and discover why certain stars and planets held such significance to humanity throughout time.
The fun doesn’t end there, stay later for a star party with the Hill Country Astronomers and explore a variety of night sky objects through telescopes.
Don't forget to swing by the Blanco County Friends of the Night Sky table to learn about the importance of preserving dark skies in Blanco and beyond!
