Join us at 5:00 PM on January 25, 2026, for our annual celebration of the 1807 fall of the Easton meteorite!

Celebrate and learn about the world-famous meteorite that was observed by Eastonites in the sky before it landed on farmland here on a winter night 218 years ago. The event is known as the first documented observation of space stuff landing in North America. Chunks of our town meteor (officially and misleadingly known as the Weston Meteorite) are held in collections around the world, from the Yale Peabody Museum to the Vatican Observatory in Italy.

We'll enjoy a presentation on the history by Frank Pagliaro, plus celestial canapes and cosmic cocktails for the occasion. Event time 5:00 - 7:00 PM.

Please register by January 15.
