Featured image for Wilton 250th Anniversary Committee

Overview

Wilton’s clear, dark skies provide the perfect natural canvas for star watching, so we’ve invited the NH Amateur Astronomical Society to lead us on an unforgettable journey through the cosmos. Whether you’re a lifelong stargazer or a curious beginner, you’ll have the rare chance to peer through high-powered telescopes to witness the craters of the moon, distant planets, and shimmering star clusters in breathtaking detail. It’s a peaceful, awe-inspiring way to wrap up to Wilton's celebration of America's 250th Anniversary, offering a moment of wonder as we look up at the same stars that have watched over Wilton for centuries.
