Evergreen Valley College is home to the Montgomery Hill Observatory, which consists of two facilities: a classic dome observatory, which is the home of an 8" refractor telescope, and a contemporary roll-off-roof observatory, which is the home of a 14" Schmidt Cassegrain telescope. We also host monthly star gazing events known as "Starry Evergreen."
