Description

Sip hot spiced cider, enjoy festive treats, and take part in a variety of autumn-inspired activities before heading outside to explore the night sky through our telescopes.

Our Docent and Member Parties celebrate community, curiosity, and the joy of gathering under the stars. Activities vary from year to year, so you might find yourself painting a pumpkin, or hunting for planets in a themed observatory scavenger hunt, or simply relaxing with cider and cookies in costume alongside your fellow stargazers.

Come for a tour, meet our volunteers, ask questions, and enjoy an easygoing evening under the stars dedicated to the people who help RFO thrive.
