If you've ever wondered how you can make a positive impact on the local foster care system, we'd love to help you find your fit.

Stop by The Spot to chat with FamilyCore staff, foster parents, and other local leaders to learn how you can be a part of this movement as we work together to strengthen families for a stronger community.

We believe that together we can provide more than enough for the children and families throughout the foster care system.

So, join us. Learn. Ask questions. Be inspired. Find Your Fit.
Not everyone will become a foster parent, but everyone can do something.

Stressed at work? Need a break from your hectic day? Come to Dome Planetarium and calm down. Enjoy a short star talk, then let your tension float away under starry skies with soothing background music. First Wednesday of every month at noon.

Free parking in the museum's parking garage, just bring in your ticket to be validated at the Front Desk. If you arrive past Noon, it will be dark in the Dome. Please pause for a few moments to allow your eyes to adjust to the dark. Someone will help you find your seats. Food and drink welcome in the Dome.

Please note that all are welcome, but this program may not be suitable for young children. It is designed to give people a quiet time to relax, and periods of long sitting can be difficult for some young ones.
