August Star Party and Dark Sky Ambassador Kick-off Event

Join us for our next monthly star party with telescope viewing, and the kick-off event for our NEW Dark Sky Ambassador program, on Saturday, August 23 at the Bluff Community Center. 

Come at 8pm to learn more about the Dark Sky Ambassador program, and the public star party will begin at 8:30pm. The Dark Sky Ambassador program will train dark sky enthusiasts to monitor light pollution, telescope operation, and more. 

Come enjoy Bluff's spectacular dark skies and learn more about how you can get involved in protecting them!

All experience levels welcome. We will provide several telescopes for you to use, and you are welcome to bring your own. BEP staff will share stargazing tips and point out celestial features. Please bring a red light and chair or blanket for sitting. 

Thanks to support from Utah Arts and Museums, BEP will be hosting monthly star parties around each New Moon, in addition to other Dark Sky programming. Save the date for September 19 at Edge of the Cedars Park, and October 21 at Goosenecks State Park.
