The Rockville Science Center is now in Rockville Town Center. The storefront center is located at 36C Maryland Ave., across from the Rockville Town Square Plaza ice rink and Rockville Memorial Library, in Rockville Town Square.
The storefront center’s first major event will be an opportunity to experience a universe of stories and see the stars with a two-day series of planetarium shows. The center will host a large inflatable planetarium that will depict winter’s evening sky, including prominent constellations, the movement of the stars, moon and planets, and significant astronomical events.
The shows, at 5, 6, 7 and 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 7 and noon, 1, 2, 3 and 4 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 8, are for all ages. Tickets are $7. Free admission for children under 3. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. For tickets, visit the Rockville Science Center on Facebook or bit.ly/RSCSkyTonight.
In the weeks ahead, the storefront center will host project-based programs for after-school activities, camps, scout merit badges and home schools; additional special events featuring unique speakers, adult science nights and parties; and team activities.
