North Star Ornament

We all have someone in our life who has been our North Star at some point. This season if you would like to give in honor or memory of someone special we will be offering a unique North Star donation. With any donation honoring or remembering a loved one between now and December 31st, we will have a special acknowledgement of your North Star along with ours on our social media pages, in our planetarium and you will receive an ornament to remember them by.

NOTE: Indicate “North Star Donation” and who your gift is for in the comment section of the donation page.
