Continuing the Nights on Blue Bayou and Stargazing series, the Buffalo Bayou Partnership is hosting another night of stargazing, storytelling and more at Houston's downtown waterfront park, Sabine Promenade. For the second year in a row, the experience will be enhanced by the presence of the Houston Museum of Natural Science's Discovery Dome. George Observatory volunteers will be on-hand with their telescopes, and park performers will be present, as well.

Sabine Promenade at Sabine Street Bridge on the north side of Buffalo Bayou.
