Overview

DISCOVER THE NIGHT APRIL 15-22 

It may seem harmless, but light pollution has far-reaching consequences that are harmful to all living things.  Effectove outdoor lighting reduces light pollution, leading to a better quality of life for all.  

The dark sky movement is working to bring better lighting to communities around the world so that all life can thrive.

Join us this International Dark Sky Week, April 15-22 to learn more about the movement, and discover the night where you live.
