Event

RESCHEDULED: We are moving to TONIGHT (Monday, May 5th) because of the poor weather forecast for the rest of the week including our regular Tuesday.

Come on out and see us at Perkins Rowe for Sidewalk Astronomy. We'll show off the Moon and some planets and whatever else we can see. Maybe catch our new Seestar in action, too!
This will be our last Sidewalk Astronomy event at Perkins Rowe before our Summer hiatus. See you in the Fall!!

(Please note that we start this event at 7pm instead of 6pm as in previous months due to the days being longer at this time of year.)

Date: Monday, May 5, 2025

Time: 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. Central

Location: Perkins Rowe Shopping Center
10000 Perkins Rowe
Baton Rouge, LA 70810

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
We did a last minute reschedule on this one because the regular day (Tuesday) was going to have bad weather. It ended up being a great night!
