About Us

The Nanaimo Astronomy Society is a gathering of amateur astronomerswho meet monthly to enjoy their favourite avocation, star gazing. We are located in Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Anyone with an interest in astronomy is welcome to attend our meetings and participate in various working groups.

Our activities include observing sessions, telescope making, digital sky imaging, learning sessions about astronomy and space exploration as well as public demonstrations and outreach.

We also share activities with the Cowichan Valley StarFinders Astronomy Society, the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada-Victoria, and Vancouver Island University.
