The facility is only open for specific presentations, or by appointment.
Presentations can be arranged for groups such as scouts, classes, dorms, clubs,
office staff, parties, etc. (minimum $60).
The facility has seating for 45 plus floor space for about 10 more.
Because of staffing and logistic issues we rarely
offer public "walk-in" shows.
To schedule a presentation for a private group, choose an open date and
time on the
calendar,
and then fill out and send this handy
presentation request form, or email to contact one of our
current guides.
Confirmations may take up to 48 hours to be posted to the web.
There are lots of stairs to climb up to the planetarium but
an elevator is available if needed.
Assistive Listening Devices available upon request.
Presentations typically last about an hour. There are many
specialty show topics
including
American Indian Starlore.
For detailed descriptions of the programs
please consult with your guide in advance. Faculty members may want to begin by consulting
our instructional vignette program guide for
examples of demonstrations.
