Library Night at UTC Jones Observatory

November 7 @ 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Free

Join the Eastgate Library, UTC, and Barnard Astronomical Society at the Clarence T. Jones Observatory for a night of learning! Attendees will have an opportunity to enjoy hands-on activities and view a planetarium show!

The Observatory’s historical telescope is undergoing restoration at this time, but we can still see it and learn about it. We plan to have a couple of Library telescopes for viewing, weather permitting. (Psst, you can check these telescopes out at Eastgate!)

Attendees will need to register for one of the 3 time slots. Each is limited to 40 people, due to the room capacity at the planetarium.

6:00-7:00 PM
7:00-8:00 PM
8:00-9:00 PM

We will continue admitting all RSVP’ed guests and walk-ups (space permitting) prior to the start of the planetarium show, but once the show starts, the doors will be closed to any latecomers.

The Observatory is located at 10 N Tuxedo Avenue, just off Brainerd Road. However, easier access to the observatory is to park behind the Brainerd United Methodist Church and walk up the hill by the cemetery.
