Join us under the stars for a FREE community observing night in Northwest Arkansas! 🔭✨
We’re excited to once again partner with NorthWest Arkansas Community College for a public Star Party as part of NWACC’s Spring Arts & Culture Festival.
Bring your family, friends, and curiosity — our team from Explore Scientific, along with astronomy experts from NWACC and the Sugar Creek Astronomical Society, will have telescopes set up and ready to explore the night sky together.
If sky conditions cooperate, we’ll be viewing a variety of celestial objects and sharing insights about what you’re seeing — from planets to deep-sky wonders.
