Outreach Programs for Solstices & Equinoxes at Belk Observatory
Astronomy Outreach at the Belk Observatory is a priority for our programmatic efforts to honor our board member and the founding Belk Director, Dr. Neal Sumerlin's legacy.
Partnering with the current Director of Belk Astronomical Observatory, with collaboration with the Blue Ridge Astronomy Club and the Docent and astronomy team members, we will host quarterly outreach programs occurring around the timing of the solstices and equinoxes, and occasional other astronomical events.
Save the dates:
Saturday September 19th - Fall Equinox Stargazing and Campout
Saturday December 19th - Winter Solstice Sunset and Observatory Gathering

We recently hosted a program for the partial solar eclipse in August!
Reach out to either the Belk or Claytor Directors for other private opportunities at the Belk Observatory or Claytor daytime astronomy, and we may be able to help too!
