The Clay Center holds Astronomy Day events in collaboration with the Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston (ATMoB). Many activities have been planned for families and children of all ages.

Admission and most activities are free, although some activities may require the purchase of kit materials, such as in the rocketry clinic. Don't forget to REGISTER so your family is eligible for the free door prize drawings.

The event will be held rain or shine since there will be many indoor activities. Children under 12 must be accompanied by parents. No pets permitted on campus.
