Our planetarium is on life support, and the community must raise approximately $140,000 by September in order to keep the doors open. Thus far, only a few thousand dollars have been raised. There will be 35-minute indoor planetarium shows every hour on the hour from 4 to 8 pm. Beginning at 5 pm, there will be telescopes and other outdoor activities for kids of all ages to enjoy. Admission is free and open to the public, but a $5 donation ($10 for families) is requested.
Please take a couple of minutes to forward this message to your neighbors and friends in Arlington. Planetariums spark children's interest in science, and today's planetariums can provide a lot more programming than just star shows. I hope I'll see you there. But if you can't make it, would you please consider making a donation? For donations, please visit www.rperrino.com/images/planetarium/official_donation_flyer.pdf.
