Star Spangled Sky (RSVP Required)
Sat, July 04, 2026
Celebrate the United States 250th birthday with a unique Star Party, exploring history in the sky.
Celebrate Independence Day under a sky that has watched over every chapter of our nation’s story. Join us for a special star party where we explore the night sky as generations of Americans have before—learning to spot constellations, track the planets, and reflect on how the heavens have inspired curiosity, navigation, and tradition throughout 250 years of history. Enjoy a peaceful night beneath the stars as we honor the past and look toward the future.
