Gerrard/Ashdale Library: Moon Watch Party

The winter sky presents some of the most spectacular sights available to sky-watchers. During this hands-on program, astronomers from the Dunlap Institute will present an overview of the night sky. Then we will move outdoors and look through the telescope. The moon will be in a quarter phase, so the mountains and craters should be visible. Children & families are encouraged to participate. There will be lots of opportunities to ask questions.
