At our recent Save Red Rock Star Party, we were honored to have a member of the Las Vegas Astronomical Society share his handmade telescope — and it was a showstopper! 🌌👀

Crafted with care and passion, this one-of-a-kind scope gave guests a breathtaking view of the night sky and reminded us just how powerful community and curiosity can be.

Our Star Party was a beautiful celebration of nature, community, and the wonders of the night sky. Huge thanks to everyone who came out and made it magical! ✨🔭

📅 Missed it? Don’t worry — our next Star Party is happening on June 22nd!
Stay tuned — we’ll be sharing all the details as the date gets closer. You won’t want to miss it. 🌄🌙

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 💫
