MOBILE PLANETARIUM AT THE LIBRARY
We’ve partnered with Cranbrook Institute of Science to bring the stars inside the library! On Friday, August 25th, the Mobile Planetarium will provide two presentations for stargazers ages ten and up. Registration is required, and space is limited (no pun intended) – so join our planetary travels and sign up today!
