SkyFest! The unique event puts our night sky front and center and invites attendees to explore the wonder of stargazing, astronomy, and outdoor recreation after dark. Learn how dark skies play an important role in a healthy ecosystem, and how Native peoples used the stars to guide their navigation and agriculture and how light pollution affects our ability to enjoy and benefit from the night sky. Join in night time hikes, yoga sessions, lectures, astro-photography workshops and much more.
