Star Party at Oracle State Park
Oracle State Park
Saturday, January 17 6:30-8:30 p.m.
Join us for a magical evening of stargazing at Oracle State Park, an official International Dark Sky Park!
From 6:30-8:30 PM, the Tucson Amateur Astronomy Association (TAAA) will guide you through the night sky just outside the patio. View planets, stars, and deep space objects through high-powered telescopes and learn from local astronomers.
Bring folding chairs if you'd like a guaranteed seat—patio space is limited and fills up quickly.
This star party is free with regular day-use admission or an annual state parks pass, and does not require registration.
Questions? Call the park at 520-896-2425 or email Ranger Michael at mbain@azstateparks.gov.
More details about this event will be announced soon!
