In one of the busiest cities on earth, it’s easy to forget there’s an entire universe above us.
Join Wild Captives for an evening of urban astronomy: a chance to slow down, reconnect with the night sky, and learn how to actually navigate the stars from the middle of the city. There’s something surreal about spotting planets and constellations above rooftops, subway noise, and glowing windows .. a reminder that awe, mystery, and natural wonder exist right here in NYC.
June 22nds’s night’s sky is stacked: Venus, Jupiter, the Moon, and the legendary Pleiades star cluster all visible in one sweep.
Your ticket includes:
Guided urban astronomy experience with professional astronomers from UrbanScopes
Telescope + binocular viewing throughout the night
Learn how to identify planets, constellations, and navigate the night sky from the city
Stories + mythology behind what you’re seeing overhead
Printed star map of the exact night sky to take home
Seasonal drinks (hot or cold depending on weather - yes, maybe wine too)
Wild Captives surprises + your first step toward earning a City Stars badge
No experience needed. Just bring yourself, a little curiosity, and maybe someone you’d want to look at the stars with (or youll meet them here!). ✨
