Get to Know the Library's Telescope on April 8!

Past event
Apr 8, 2022, 7:30 to 9 PM

Did you know that Carpenter-Carse Library has a telescope that our library cardholders can borrow for a week at a time? Join us on Friday, April 8 at 7:30 pm when Paul Walker from the Vermont Astronomical Society (VAS) -- the organization that makes this loaner telescope program possible! -- gives a tutorial on how the telescope works and what sorts of celestial bodies you can be scoping out in the night sky with it. We'll begin with a presentation in our community room and then head outside to give attendees a chance for some supervised hands-on experience with the loaner telescope.

Take advantage of this chance to get questions answered by VAS and learn the ins-and-outs of our loaner telescope -- an awesome opportunity available for patrons -- so that you can feel confident borrowing it on your own time to gaze at the night sky above.

Please pre-register for this event by emailing meg@carpentercarse.org

*In case of inclement weather on April 8, the reschedule date will be Saturday, April 9 at 7:30 p.m. Please keep an eye on our website for the latest updates.

If you have questions or require accommodations to participate, please reach out to Meg Malone at meg@carpentercarse.org
