Star Gazing at the Morton Grove Historical Museum

In case of cloudy skies this event will be re-scheduled. Call the museum at 847-965-0203 for more information.

 Come out to view and learn about the stars and planets of the night sky.  Tonight's sky will feature a crescent Moon, Jupiter and the Pleiades star cluster. Several telescopes will be set up in Harrer Park adjacent to the Morton Grove Historical Museum and Education Center.  Niles West High School Astronomy students and faculty will provide interesting and educational projects and crafts inside the Museum Education Center, as well as providing telescopes and their expertise for stargazing!
