Outreach

We are planning to hold in-person meetings in accordance with the University's COVID policies for Fall 2024 and Winter 2025. There will be opportunities to participate in outreach, research presentations, and interactions with our community. We are looking forward to seeing many of you back and welcoming new members to SAS. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

SAS hosts extensive outreach programs for local elementary, middle, and high school students as well as other organizations such as the Girl Scouts. The goal of these events is to promote STEM, scientific knowledge, and astronomy interests. 

We are available to design outreach programs for your organization or class. SAS has access to an extensive observatory and planetarium, and many of our members are fully trained in operating these. We would be more than happy to give your group a tour of these facilities, observe the day/night sky with you, or present a planetarium show to you. If you are interested in learning more about hosting an event with us, please contact sas-officers@umich.edu. You can also schedule an event by filling out this Google Form.
