Adur/Worthing Events.


Recommended Posts

Hi All

Thought you might be interested in a few event’s coming up.

This Friday evening 3rd April at Herstmonceux from 18-30hrs.

On this special evening we will be sketching the Moon even if the weather is cloudy!

While 3 of the large historic telescopes will be looking at other interesting astronomical objects smaller telescopes on the lawns will be trained on the Moon and you will have the opportunity to sketch its features just as the astronomers Thomas Harriot and Galileo did almost 400 years ago!

In addition Sally Russell, amateur astronomer and artist will be holding drop in sessions where she will be able to teach you how to sketch the Moon using different media either from a projected image through a large telescope (weather permitting) or from photographs Sally has taken. Don’t miss this opportunity to take some hints and tips from an expert!

Monday 6th April Adur Astronomical Society.

Nik Szymanek and Ed Sampson will be giving talks, we have invited several local Astronomical Societies along for the evening which will be held in The Barn Theatre starting at 19-30hrs.
