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

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.

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.
