Under the Winter Sky: A "Getting to Know You" Star Party

Calling all stargazers, nature lovers, and urban planet guardians!

Do you miss seeing stars over New York? Join The Night Rangers—a new program from the New York Society for Ethical Culture dedicated to understanding and reducing light pollution. This isn’t just about science; it’s about ethical action, shared curiosity, and making our city healthier for people and wildlife.

From our rooftop overlooking Central Park, participants will explore how excessive light affects ecosystems, climate, and our own well-being through hands-on, family-friendly demonstrations. Together, we’ll imagine practical, community-driven solutions that help New Yorkers use light more wisely.

All ages and backgrounds are welcome—no ranger is too young or too old.
Bring your imagination and become part of a team committed to making a real, visible difference in our city and restoring the night sky.
