Winter Astronomy Program with Barefoot Bob
Tuesday, January 28: 6:00 to 8:30 pm
(cloud date Wednesday, January 29)
Main Library Parking Lot
Free and family friendly
Everyone is invited for our first ever winter astronomy program with astronomer Bob Piekiel. See the night sky
through telescopes as you have never seen it before! Winter skies can be cold, but often give us the clearest, darkest nights that are perfect for star-gazing. At the start of our program, the planet Venus will be sitting near a crescent moon low over the western sky. As they set, the area surrounding the constellation Orion will be rising high in the east. No other section of the sky has as many bright stars, clusters and nebulae as this one. Please note: the parking lot lights will be turned off for this event, so please be careful driving and walking about.

The best New Year’s gift is a contribution to the…. Marcellus Free Library Fund Drive
A thriving community depends on easy access to current information and technology. Visiting in person or online, the Library connects our community to a whole world of ideas and information - print, digital and audio materials, mind-expanding programs, and technology resources with live help available. Our library is a gathering place, a center for life-long learning and a valued partner in community economic development.
Your generous donations last year enabled the Library to offer a multitude of creative activities for children, teens and adults. When you give to the Library, you give to your community. Your gift will help us better serve our community as we look toward the future. We hope we can count on you to make a tax-free gift (either by mail, online at marcelluslibrary.org using PayPal). The Marcellus Free Library - Use it, enjoy it, support it.
