Industry Workshop – Dark Skies

Learn new ways to share the night skies and upcoming celestial events with your guests as we head out for a walk under the stars with an astronomer. We're excited to have Alice Koning from the Kerry Wood Nature Centre back for this workshop.

Alice received her MSc in Physics & Astronomy under the supervision of Dr. Erik Rosolowsky at the University of Alberta. While completing her BSc at the University of Victoria, Alice had the opportunity to work at both the Herzberg Institute of Astrophysics (just outside of Victoria, BC) and the Gemini South Observatory (in Chile). Now living a double life as both the Community Outreach Coordinator for the Waskasoo Environmental Education Society and the Astronomy Instructor at Red Deer Polytechnic, Alice is passionate about making scientific knowledge accessible to all.

This workshop is open to Explore Nordegg Partners and local tourism staff. A public event is also available for residents and visitors.
