Pecan Festival

The South Carolina Pecan Festival is held the first Saturday of November each year in Downtown Florence.

For the last 9 years, Dooley Planetarium has been attending this festival to showcase our solar telescopes. We have also been invited the last 6 years to be part of the STEM Zone.

Students from the Department of Physics and Engineering volunteer their time to work the booth area. We will be attending the festival again on November 4, 2023.

Be sure to stop by and say hello!
