On Saturday, October 3, Penn State Wilkes-Barre will be hosting a Full Moon Festival in honor of the second most important holiday in Chinese culture.
Beginning at 7:30 p.m. in the Abram Nesbitt III Academic Commons, Penn State Wilkes-Barre invites the community to learn about the Chinese traditions of the Full Moon Festival and the history of the Friedman Observatory, view the night sky through the Observatory's 16-inch Meade Schmidt-Cassagrain LX200 telescope, enjoy a special exhibition in the Friedman Art Gallery, and enjoy a light dessert reception - including traditional moon cake!
