Join us for the Statewide Star Party at Asheboro Public Library! On Friday, April 4th at 4:00 PM, families and children are invited to participate in hands-on activities exhibiting the theme "Your Place In Space"! Begin the Star Party with a talk for all ages by Christopher Rowe, NASA Ambassador and president of the Greensboro Astronomy Club. After the talk, explore activities and hands-on experiments, including: crafting a pocket solar system, a storytime with Jason Chin's "Your Place in the Universe" picture book, observations of the moon in the daytime sky, and more! Participate in five activities and gather badges in your Star Party Space Passport to receive a prize.

Our Star Party will happen rain or shine; however, some activities are weather dependent.

The NC Science Festival’s annual Statewide Star Party is made possible through the generous support of the NC Space Grant.
