On display at Concord Public Library, this panel; Discover the Universe, McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center is part of the Mosaic 250 Community Art Project presented to the City of Concord.

Learners of all ages can enjoy exploring our multiple floors of interactive exhibits and demonstrations, gazing into the cosmos in our observatory, participating in hands-on educational programs, playing on our Science Playground, and of course, seeing a planetarium show in our world class, state of the art planetarium theater!

If you've been following along all the major scientific advances in the world lately, you know there's never been a better time to be an enthusiast of space, aviation, Earth science, or STEM! Through our library pass program, local libraries and libraries in surrounding states serve their communities by purchasing year long library passes to the Discovery Center.

Here's how it works:

Libraries can issue up to 2 library passes to the Discovery Center every day that we're open to the public! Each pass covers the cost of general admission for up to 4 people. This saves the average family around $50!

This program provides an unforgettable and educational experience to learners of all ages and backgrounds. We'd love include your library into our in our library pass program so we can continue to inspire your community to reach for the stars!

If you have any questions, feel free to contact our Visitor Services Coordinator, Kelly Thompson by email at kthompson@starhop.com to begin offering Discovery Center Library Passes to your patrons!

We believe space is for everyone, and our library pass program supports that belief! We look forward to hearing from you!
