Members' evenings
Four times a year the centre opens late, just for members: lab demonstrations, a guest astronomer and the roof telescopes pointed at whatever is best that night. Children are welcome.
Members say
Example reviews.
We come most Sundays after church. The children treat it like their own clubhouse.
The Patron telescope night was the best birthday present I have given my husband.
