    June 7 through August 4, 2013

     

    With the exception of two “Super Saturday” dates, the Cernan Center is once again suspending its weekend public shows for much of the summer, as was the case during the previous three summers. This action is part of a campus-wide cost-saving initiative by Triton College that runs from June 7th through August 4th. The Cernan Center will remain open on Mondays through Thursdays for group shows.

    However, during this nine-week period, the Cernan Center will host two “Super Saturdays” of expanded show offerings on the evenings of June 15th and July 13th. The expanded “Super Saturday” schedules for these two dates are as follows:

     

    Super Saturday #1: June 15 

    7 p.m. ----- Once in a Blue Moon + Patriot mini laser show

    8 p.m. ----- Monthly Skywatch

    9:30 p.m. ----- Endless Photons extended length laser show

      

    Super Saturday #2: July 13

    7 p.m. ----- Our Place in Space + The Friendly Stars mini show

    8 p.m. ----- Monthly Skywatch

    9:30 p.m. ----- Legends of Rock extended length laser show
