On Friday, October 21, head to Branched Oak Observatory for a night of stargazing and your favorite James Arthur Vineyards wines from 8 to 10 p.m. Tickets for this event cost $33 and include wine, appetizers, and observatory admission.

The Wine & Stargazing Night has been a reoccurring hit for observatory guests. Past events have included observatory tours and guest speakers. It is an educational night of astronomy, meeting new people, and of course, wine!

Located at 14300 NW 98th St. in Raymond, NE (just outside of Branched Oak Lake and State Recreation Area), Branched Oak Observatory is open to the general public and students of astronomy. With the help of local astronomers and amazing volunteers, they setup a variety of telescopes and explored the night sky.
