North Essex Astronomical Society meeting
Wednesday 17th July 2024 from 20:00pm to 22:00pm
Henry Dixon Hall
Rivenhall, Witham, Essex, CM8 3HR
Join the friendly North Essex Astronomical Society members for this monthly lecture meeting on the third Wednesday of each month (except for the first Wednesday in December and no meeting in August). Anyone is welcome, beginner or expert.
The lectures are suitable for older children and adults. Younger children are welcome but may find the Society’s regular star gazing events at Great Notley Country Park more interesting!
These sessions are also a fantastic way to learn about the Society and its regular members-only club nights at their observatory.
Doors open at 19:30 for a 20:00 start; a small fee is payable at the door, with under 16’s free.
