AoT C’ville #4 @ Champion

Come learn about the Universe with Astronomy on Tap!

Astronomy on Tap events are hosted around the world. You will interact with professional and amateur astronomers as they share their knowledge of the cosmos in an informal venue. Each event consists of two or three short talks on an astronomy-related topic. Between talks, you can test your knowledge with trivia and games to win astronomy-themed prizes! We hope you will join us at this free and family-friendly event!

The next Astronomy on Tap event in Charlottesville will begin at 6:30 PM on Monday, June 3rd at Champion Brewing. Arrive early to get a good seat (and put in your drink order)! The event will end around 8:30 PM, but you are welcome to come and go at your leisure.

Following Astronomy on Tap, Champion will host their movie night with the space-western “Serenity” at 8:30 PM.
