Join Starry Skies North, Mike Lynch, and indigenous and cultural astronomers for family-friendly night-sky activities. Listen as author Paul Bogard reads his children’s book What if Night?, learn about indigenous star lore and make planispheres showing indigenous constellations, then stargaze using telescopes and your new planispheres. You’ll learn how our night sky has been lost to light pollution, and simple things to do to Bring Back the Night. Ages 3+ (kids must be accompanied by an adult).
