BETHLEHEM LIBRARY: Enter the Starlab

Spotlight News by Spotlight News
July 4, 2019
in Blogs, Community Blogs, Opinion
Reading Time: 3 mins read

Join us as we gaze upon the night sky in the middle of the day. The library will be bringing the Starlab portable planetarium to Bethlehem Town Hall Monday, July 8, for an afternoon of astronomical exploration for all ages. An astronomer from the Dudley Observatory at MiSci will lead each program.

With the Starlab, you can learn more about the phases of the moon, seasons and the changing positions of constellations in our night sky. Starlab is a 16-foot dome that accommodates up to 30 people and is handicapped accessible. A projector introduces participants to astronomical topics through exciting graphics projected on the dome’s interior.

We have scheduled programs for every age group, from kindergarteners to adults. Please remember, all Starlab events take place next door at Bethlehem Town Hall (445 Delaware Ave., Delmar).

See the schedule below:

• 1 p.m.: As the Earth Spins (grades K-2)

• 2 p.m.: Seasonal Stargazers (grades K-5)

• 3 p.m.: Native American Constellations (grades 3-5)

• 4 p.m.: Star Clock (grades 3-8)

• 5:15 p.m.: Wonders of the Cosmos (ages 14-adult)

Katsura & Friends

Our Evenings on the Green concert series continues at 7 p.m. Wednesday, July 10, with Katsura and Friends, who will entertain with some pop, folk and classic rock.

Bring a blanket or lawn chair, pick a spot on the Green, and get ready to listen to some great music. Concerts are always free, appropriate for all ages, and they take place every Wednesday through Aug. 7. Pick up a flyer or visit our website at www.bethlehempubliclibrary.org for times and details. Concerts will move indoors if it rains.

Mini golf = big fun!

It’s almost here!

Bethlehem Public Library will transform into an 18-hole miniature golf course Sunday, July 14, from 1 to 5 p.m.

Bring your family and friends to one of the most popular events we host all year. Regular library services will be limited, but if you spot a book or movie you just have to have while putting your way through the shelves, we’ll be on hand to check it out for you.

Facebook for beginners

Do you know someone who would like to know how to get started using Facebook? Our Introduction to Facebook program on Saturday, July 6, at 11 a.m. is just for beginners. We’ll talk about what the social media platform is all about and how to use it. Sign up online or call.

Summer hours reminder

The library is closed Sundays in July and August (except July 14 for Mini-Golf). You can access the library catalog and other library services online anytime at www.bethlehempubliclibrary.org.
