The Clark Telescope dome in winter

Each year, nearly 10,000 K-12 students come to Lowell for science demonstrations, telescope viewing, and tours.

We offer private and group programs throughout the year for schools and groups that range from one to sixty participants. Choose from a number of multimedia presentations at a variety of levels, building tours, and viewing. All programs are presented by one of our educators.

All private programs also include access to our Visitor Center’s Discover the Universe exhibit hall.

You may view details about our programs and book a private or school program online. For assistance or questions regarding booking a program, e-mail Mary DeMuth or call 928-233-3235.
