MATHER PLANETARIUM

​​The Sandra F. Pritchard Mather Planetarium at West Chester University holds evening shows for the general public. The live monthly presentations are hosted by a PhD astronomer and consist of an overview of what is visible in the current night sky. In addition, each show focuses on a particular aspect of astronomy. Pre-recorded movie shows are offered as well. The movie shows, presented by WCU students, offer a shorter tour of the night sky followed by a full-dome movie. 

All shows start promptly at 7 p.m. and run approximately one hour. 

Admission is $6.00 per person and must be purchased in advance. Children under the age of 5 may set on a parent's lap free of charge. Tickets must be purchased ahead of time by going online at www.wcupatix.com. Tickets go on sale 8am on the Friday and sell out very quickly.

​The planetarium is wheelchair accessible.

  
For more detailed information about the shows, including dates for the movie shows, please see our website at http://www.wcupa.edu/planetarium or follow us on Facebook.
