Join us for our April event on Wednesday, April 23 at 7:00 PM, where we will hear about the new Marley Foundation Astronomy Discovery Center!

Lowell Observatory opened its new Marley Foundation Astronomy Discovery Center in November of 2024. Soon after, it was named as the Best Science Museum in the Newsweek readers' choice survey, and as Time magazine's World's 100 Greatest Places. Amanda Bosh is the Executive Director of Lowell Observatory and was the Project Director for the ADC. She will share stories on how the ADC came to be, its impact, and where Lowell Observatory is focusing next!
