Join Nanaimo Science's Science in the Park team for this FREE special program about Astronomy with Dr. Gregory Arkos (VIU) who will help interpret the night sky!This event is weather dependent - please check for updates!
Participants will get to explore our solar system and beyond, make constellation crafts, and enjoy the moon in its first quarter! If staying past 9 PM to star gaze (and possibly catch some of the Perseid meteor shower), we recommend parking outside of the park gates, and bringing a comfortable lawn chair and blanket!
Parent participation required.
