Big Bend Night Sky by Jørgen Høg
Participants will join in fun citizen science activities, learn from engaging speakers and exhibits, see examples of good lighting for their home or business, view school projects and competition entries focused on protecting the night sky, feast at the food trucks, take home a book or work of art inspired by the night sky, earn a related scouting badge, or explore the stars.
The Hill Country Photography Club and the Photographers of Dripping Springs are co-sponsoring a Photography Contest. We will be showing an exhibition of the images selected by Andy Heatwole. We will also be announcing the award winners.
