Location: The Mansion, Living Room (upstairs) 506 Princess St. Kingston ON
Date: July 28, 2025
Time: 6:30pm - 8:30pm
We’re back with another of our signature local events: Astronomy on Tap: Kingston.
This free event is in the Living Room of The Mansion (506 Princess St, Kingston) on Tuesday, July 28th, 2025, at 6:30 p.m.
Local astro-buff Nik Arora will host three fantastic scientists at the cutting edge of their fields: physicists Ezri Wyman, Pheely Chitnelawong, and historian Eli Berry from Queen’s University.
There will be time to ask questions and chat with the speakers and other local scientists. All three of our engaging researchers will speak to a general public audience, so no prior science knowledge is needed – though you may want to brush up on your astronomy, physics and sci-fi knowledge to compete in the trivia session! 🧠 Not to worry, though; there are prizes for the winners, losers, and creatives alike! 🎁
The event is free and 19+.
The Mansion serves alcohol and non-alcoholic drinks, and food is available for purchase.
Space is limited, so we encourage you to arrive on time! The pre-show starts at 6:30 pm, and the main event begins at 7 pm.
