Perkins Observatory is rarely used for research these days. The Brochures below have information on how to buy advance tickets, as well as cost. Tickets are more expensive if you buy them at the door the night of the program. Programs are held rain or shine.
Tickets are non-transferable to other nights.
Individuals, families, and groups of all ages are welcome and encouraged to attend. Yes, that means that you might come on a cloudy night. Perkins Observatory does sell tickets at the door when space permits, but we are limited to 90 people by the Delaware City Fire Marshall. We hate to turn people away at the door. This lecture series meets on one Thursday night each month, and is geared toward a more adult audience.
