We are interested in hosting community and school groups from Claremont by prior arrangement. For more information contact the physics department office at (909) 621-8724.

We also have a regular series of sky talks which are generally at the first Tuesday of the month at 8PM during the academic year. We will offer a chance to view stars and planets after the show weather permitting.  During the academic year of 2004-2005 the planetarium will be closed as Dr. Penprase is on sabbatical leave.
