The Frisco Historic Park and Museum has announced the return of its Park After Dark series. The free, community event series provides fun, educational and historical experiences for all ages.

On Tuesday, Aug. 12, from 9–11 p.m., the Historic Park Gazebo will host a special night of stargazing during the peak of the Perseids Meteor Shower. Attendees are invited to explore the night sky with Astro Mark, who will guide participants in learning how to navigate the stars.

The evening includes a free moon-guided walking tour, offering an ideal setting to experience Summit County’s sky. Free telescopes will be available for enhanced viewing of celestial sights throughout the night.



The walking tours will start at 9 p.m., 9:15 p.m., 10 p.m. and 10:15 p.m. and will be 40 minutes in duration. Space is limited and advance registration is strongly recommended. To reserve your spot, please call the museum at 970-668-3428. Free telescopes will be available throughout the event at the Historic Park and do not require a reservation.

On Saturday, Sept. 20, Frisco will pay tribute to the town dances of Frisco’s past with a silent disco at Frisco’s Schoolhouse Museum. The disco will take place from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. and will serve as a celebration for the end of the summer and a welcome party for the upcoming fall season.



There will be a DJ providing multiple channels to choose between on wireless headphones, mocktails served by Building Hope and a water-based, temporary tattoo pop-up.
