The Prince George Astronomical Society will be closed on Halloween night (October 31st, 2025) — even our telescopes need to hide from the ghosts and ghouls!

We’ll reopen our Friday Night Open House on November 7th at 7:30 PM.

Have a frightfully fun Halloween — and we’ll see you under the (ghost-free) skies next week!
