5.30 to 7pm. Join us for a family-friendly evening learning about the moon as it reaches its brightest and most visible phase. Explore the wonders of the moon. Our astronomy expert will take you on a tour of the moon on the big screen. Then, weather permitting, we will head outside and get hands-on using telescopes and binoculars to go in search of moon craters and mountains and learn more about the phases of the moon. The content of this evening is family-orientated and suitable for adults with children of all ages. Please note if the weather is poor or cloudy the event will still go ahead.
