We’re heading to **[Scienceworks Planetarium](https://maps.app.goo.gl/wdTpHjwSCiPtxjk78)** for a special **Planetarium Nights** session featuring **Space Rock Symphony** — a full-album, immersive space experience under the dome. Before the planetarium show, we’ll grab dinner together at [Grazeland Melbourne](https://maps.app.goo.gl/7264PSLZ7gL6THcN7) nearby. It’s a relaxed way to settle in, eat at your own pace, and chat a bit before the lights go down. The planetarium experience itself runs for about 50 minutes, with music playing start to finish while cosmic visuals unfold across the dome. Expect something atmospheric, reflective, and quietly mind-expanding rather than loud or high-energy. This is a low-pressure Friday night plan — you’re welcome to join for just dinner, just the show, or both.

You can purchase it from here [https://museumsvictoria.com.au/scienceworks/whats-on/planetarium-nights/](https://museumsvictoria.com.au/scienceworks/whats-on/planetarium-nights/).

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. If the weather cooperates we will be meeting in the patio. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun!
