Our hearts (and skies) are full 💜
Thank you to every stargazer, volunteer, and family who came out to the Earth Night Star Party.

We’re so proud to share that — thanks to the incredible support of our community and our generous sponsor, @bretttorinofoundation — we raised the funds to gift an incredible telescope to Red Rock Canyon, so everyone can continue enjoying the stars for years to come 🌌🔭

This event also marked the beginning of an exciting new partnership with BLM and Dark Skies International as we work toward achieving Urban Night Sky Place designation for Red Rock.

Here’s to protecting the night and keeping Red Rock wild — and beautifully dark 💫
