Join Dooley Planetarium on Sunday, December 20, 2026, for The Christmas Star as part of their FREE public planetarium shows offered each month. This program looks at the different possibilities for the Christmas Star and is based on a script written by Mr. James "Ed" Dooley.

The program will begin promptly at 3 pm.

Doors will open at 2:30 pm for visitors to arrive early and explore the planetarium. There is no admission fee for this event, but seating is first come first served. Due to the popularity of this program if the auditorium fills prior to 3 pm the show will be started early and a second show will be offered 1 hour later. A sign will be hung on the door with the 2nd show start time.
