Speaker Series
November 14 @ 1:00 pm
On Saturdays and Sundays, State Parks interpreters from across Washington will visit the Observatory to provide special guest presentations. While some programming will cover astronomy and involve use of telescopes, visitors will also have the opportunity to learn about other topics like flora, fauna, geology and the history of the Pacific Northwest.
