"Florida Skies: Love Among the Stars" Friday, Feb. 15
February 12, 2013
Join us for an evening of stellar tales of love and devotion during "Florida Skies: Love Among the Stars", this Friday evening, February 15th, 2013 at 7:00 PM. James Albury (co-host of the PBS TV Series, "Star Gazers") will be joined this week by story crafter Sarah Eiland as they share star lore with a decidedly romantic theme. Sarah is of Native American decent and she will bring her gift of 'story crafting' to the Kika Silva Pla Planetarium for this special event.
"Our planetarium is such a unique environment for Sarah's brand of story telling.", says planetarium coordinator, James Albury. James adds, "The concept behind 'Florida Skies' is reminiscent of what our ancestors did, but with a high-tech twist. Families can gather together under the stars and get a personally guided tour of the night sky, while hearing stories of heroism, devotion and love; many handed down from generation to generation. This week the audience will be treated to Native American star lore and a few stories crafted by Ms. Eiland herself."
Doors for this special performance of "Florida Skies" will open at 6:30 PM, Friday, February 15th, 2013, with the show beginning promptly at 7:00 PM. Admission is $5.00 for adults, $4.00 for children (ages 4-12 years old) and senior citizens (ages 60+). Children ages 3 and under are free, and anyone with a valid Santa Fe College ID also receives free admission.
The planetarium has seating for 60 people and tickets are sold on a first come first served basis, so arrive early to guarantee yourself a good seat.
So join us this Friday night for an evening of wonder, magic and beauty.
