Description

UNA planetarium offers private programs for schools and clubs. We encourage those contacting us to have a range of dates in mind for the program and to keep in mind that availability is according to the teaching schedule of the planetarium director. Currently, for the 2023 Fall semester, the best availability for school and private programs are in the  mornings before noon, and Thursday afternoons.  Evening and weekend bookings are possible from Thursday to Sunday.

Availability is the following:

Monday: 8:00 a.m. - noon

Tuesday: 8:00 a.m. - noon

Wednesday: 8:00 a.m. - Noon

Thursday: 12:00 a.m. - midnight

Friday: 8:00 a.m. - Noon, 6:00 p.m. - midnight

Saturday: 8:00 a.m. - midnight

Sunday: 8:00 a.m. - midnight

The planetarium can hold about 65 people.  Larger groups can do multiple programs on the same day or schedule them on different days. We are happy to work with you to make sure everyone gets to visit!

The fee is $3/student for schools and $5/person for other groups. Teachers and guardians who are required to drive kids do not get charged (within reason). Smaller groups may find attending a public night more convenient, or might consider finding another small group to also participate.
