Float away on a brand new, world-expanding Poetry Nap voyage—The Enchanting Secret of the Opalescent Moon—with poetry and music woven into an immersive tale of whimsy, curiosity and adoration guided by us, Lady and Lord Dosis, time voyagers of the dream world.
Delight in a cozy, celestial indoors nap under the visual marvels of the Chabot Space & Science Center’s full-dome Planetarium. Unlike other naps of the past, experience “Peek Moments” by opening your eyes on occasion to Chabot Planetarium’s visual wonders.
We promise you are in for an otherworldly treat! If you like, bring a pillow, blanket, and dress in pajamas or robes.
PLUS, upon waking from your dazzling dream, extend the cosmic exploration by peering through Chabot’s historic telescopes!
A grand night, indeed!
We'll also be a part of the Litquake festival! Hip hip hooray!
Ethereally, surreally, and really yours,
Lady & Lord Dosis
