Sidewalk Astronomy

Spend an evening exploring the night sky at The Bishop on November 13 from 6 to 9 p.m.

In partnership with the Local Group of Deep Sky Observers (LGDSO), The Bishop invites guests to experience Sidewalk Astronomy, a free community event featuring views of planets, moons, and other celestial wonders through powerful telescopes operated by local astronomy enthusiasts.

Food and refreshments will be available for purchase, including tacos, sandwiches, coffee, and sweet treats, along with a selection of beverages.

Guests are also invited to experience our planetarium show, From Earth to the Universe.  Shows begin at 6:30, 7:30, and 8:30 p.m. Admission is $5 per person and free for Museum members. Ticketing is on-site, with limited availability.

Whether you’re a seasoned stargazer or simply curious about the universe, join us for an evening of astronomy, discovery, and community under the stars.

Please note: The Museum galleries and Parker Manatee Rehabilitation Habitat will be closed during this event. Only service animals are permitted on site.
