Watch the Planetarium Show, “The Dark Side of Light” that will show us how humans impact the night sky. Then head outside to enjoy a naturalist-led Autumn Night Hike where we will use our senses and learn about how wildlife adapts to the dark compared to us! The hike route will be on uneven, wood-chipped and grass trails.
