Experience the beauty of the night sky like never before at the First Friday Under the Stars series. Hosted by the Raleigh Astronomy Club, this recurring event invites enthusiasts to a private Triangle Land Conservancy preserve in Creedmoor, North Carolina, for an exclusive evening of stargazing. Because this location is typically closed to the public, this is a rare opportunity to observe celestial wonders away from light pollution in a peaceful, natural environment. Our knowledgeable members will be on hand to help guide your exploration of the cosmos, making this an ideal experience for both seasoned observers and curious beginners.

Please remember to bring a comfortable chair or picnic blanket, bug spray, a red flashlight, and warm layers to ensure a pleasant evening under the stars. For your convenience, feel free to pack snacks and water. Registration is required for all attendees to secure your spot at this free event. Visit the registration links for your preferred date to confirm your attendance. We look forward to sharing an unforgettable night of discovery with you at Three Bears Acres.
