Ancient Astronomy for Kids

In this school holiday workshop kids will explore the key concepts of Greek astronomers including how they used the stars to navigate the tools they used to study the sky and the myths they told to explain what they saw.

Participants will come away with the ability to identify constellations; a telescope of their own making; and take-home materials to construct an astrolabe to continue tracking the planets and constellations.

This workshop is ideal for kids who are curious about science history and mythology from ages 7–14. Tickets include all materials and museum general admission after the workshop.
