Families can line up at many telescopes for up-close views of the night sky and talk with the astronomers about what they are seeing. The star party runs from 6 to 8 pm on Saturday, November 14, and all ages are welcome; it is an easy first stargazing night for school-age children, though little ones are welcome too. Dress warmly, since you will be standing outside after sunset,. ## Similar picks in Nashville - [Curious Naturalist at Warner Park Nature Center](https://grassyknees.com/nashville/activities/curious-naturalist-at-warner-park-nature-center--listing-34b817d0907132b9a40eb23b) — Sat, Nov 14 (+1 more date) · 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM · Warner Park Nature Center · All ages · checked Oct 24.
