New Summer Programs for Kids at Dyer
Dyer Observatory is now offering additional summer programs for kids! Our new half-day and full-day activities feature some of our most popular summer camp projects along with brand-new experiences in astronomy and space science.
Summer Camp 2025
We are thrilled to announce a new collaboration between Dyer Observatory and Vanderbilt’s Programs for Talented Youth (PTY). In lieu of our traditional camps, this summer Dyer will join PTY’s renowned Summer Academy at Vanderbilt for the Young to pilot an astronomy and space science camp designed for academically advanced rising 5th and 6th graders.
This pilot program is part of Dyer Observatory’s ongoing efforts to expand summer programming for kids, and we look forward to building on this exciting initiative in the future.
Update
Dr. Billy Teets' 2025 summer course "Astronomy Tricks of the Trade" within Vanderbilt’s Program for Talented Youth is now full. You may see other PTY summer course offerings on their website or visit this collection of other Vanderbilt summer camps.
