Inwood Hill Park: Stargazing with the Amateur Astronomers Association (Open House New York)

October 19 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
FREE

Founded in 1927, the Amateur Astronomers Association is a volunteer-run non-profit that promotes the study and public awareness of the cosmos through observing, education, outreach, astrophotography, and more. During OHNY Weekend, AAA invites visitors to experience the wonders of the night sky in Inwood. Using high-powered telescopes, members of the Association will guide visitors in observing Saturn, double stars, and star clusters, while sharing their stargazing knowledge. No prior stargazing experience necessary. All ages are welcome.

Take the “A” train to the last stop. The entrance to the ballfields is on Seaman Avenue and 214th St. See for map: This event will take place on the Inwood Park ball field, which has uneven terrain that may pose difficulties for people using mobility devices.  This event is weather permitting. It will be cancelled in the event of clouds or rain.
