Celebrate the 50th anniversary of the lunar landing with live music, dancing, art, a food fair, and an artisan market! At 10:56 pm on July 20, 1969, humans first set foot on the Moon, expanding the limits of humanity. Now to celebrate 50 years since that milestone, we’re hosting a two-day festival, featuring live music, a food fair, artisan market, and family-friendly activities. Join us for a weekend full of lunar-inspired fun!

Imagine you’re on a lunar base, ready explore to the Moon. Your mission is to document a region of the Moon of your choice – maybe the Ocean of Storms, the Sea of Tranquility, the Peninsula of Thunder, or the Bay of Rainbows. What will you find there? The Moon Mission workshop, led by Bettina Forget, inspires participants to dive into research, fire up their imagination, and experiment with new forms of expression to create a piece that bridges art and science using a range of materials.

Visit us on the 50th Anniversary of the Moon landing for a full-day celebration packed with astronaut appearances, special speakers, space-themed design and engineering challenges and much more! Webcast: Canada Welcomes Back David Saint-Jacques

Join artist and scholar Bettina Forget for a talk bridging art, space science, and the timely topic of women’s representation. Of the 1,605 named craters on the moon, only 29 are named after women — an issue that Forget has tackled in a series of works called Women With Impact. She’ll discuss the underrepresentation of women in the historical science record through the lens of this piece, which fuses drawing and selenographic research.

It was 50 years ago this July that the first man walked on the Moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission. Come celebrate that lunar achievement at a free event with York University’s Allan I. Carswell Observatory team.

What is the sound of a twinkling star? Can planets keep a beat? How loud was the big bang?
