Monthly Club Meetings happen every 1st Wednesday at 6:00 PM where we socialize and hear from invited Club Meeting Speakers from regional organizations, often members of local community as well, who present on subjects relevant to astronomy… We meet at the Prescott Public Library at 215 E.

Club meetings are open to the public. Everyone is welcome!!
VIEW THE SKIES, MAKE NEW FRIENDS
Starry Nights
Starry Nights sky viewing “star parties” occur during the spring and fall seasons, weather permitting.
