Bring your telescope to Robert Ferguson Observatory for a hands-on class designed to help you understand, set up, and confidently use your scope. Learn how telescopes work, what to consider when purchasing or upgrading, and the basics of operation. Knowledgeable docents will provide one-on-one guidance, helping you get the most out of your equipment and even sharing views through their own telescopes.

VIP admission allows close parking for easy telescope unloading, while general admission requires a short walk from the lower lot. All proceeds benefit the Valley of the Moon Observatory Association, supporting the ongoing care of this Sonoma County treasure.
