2022 LOOK BACK REPORT
2022 has been a momentous year for the Adler Planetarium. With the support of our community, we have reopened stronger and more focused than ever before. In our commitment to making space for everyone, we’ve brought together a robust digital audience with our vibrant in-person guests who we missed so much over the last two years. In museum spaces like our Community Design Labs, or online through programs like Sky Observers Hangout, we are giving eager explorers of all backgrounds a platform to connect and explore the sky together.
As we close out a historic year—one that saw our full physical reopening to the public—we are thrilled to share the following recap of this year’s biggest highlights.
