Group Visits

Why not bring your group to the second largest planetarium in the state?  

Bring your civic group, scout troop, church group, day care, school classes, or after-school enrichment group to the Staerkel Planetarium! We are open for groups through the week on a reservation basis. You can choose your date and time. We begin shows on the hour and you can pick the show you want to see.

Our group rate is just $4 per person with a minimum of 20 people (if you have less than 20 people, we can still book the show for you, but the fee is still $80).

If you have questions, call us at 217/351-2568. Availability is dependent on availability of the dome and a staff member to operate the show.
