There’s a 100 percent chance of snow at the SCSM

Sponsored by
The South Carolina State Museum's planetarium is illuminated to resemble a snow globe. Through large glass windows, the spherical structure is lit with a festive blue glow, with light projections of holiday trees and snowflakes creating a wintry atmosphere. Wreaths hang on the doors, enhancing the holiday theme. The sleek metal framework of the building and the decorations lend a seasonal charm, making the planetarium look like a magical winter display from the outside.

Attend the Holiday Planetarium Lighting to see it snow inside the museum.

Shake up your week at the South Carolina State Museum during its Holiday Planetarium Lighting this Thursday, Dec. 5. We heard it’s going to snow.

From 4 to 7 p.m., enjoy:

At the end of the evening, head outside to see the planetarium dome transform into a giant, illuminated snow globe.
