The Native Plants Working is sponsoring an astronomy night.

Come to the Monterey Library on Friday, August 18 at 7:30 for a family-friendly presentation on

Defending the Dark. A short film will be followed by a talk given by astro-photographer

and amateur astronomer Destin Heilman of Becket, where the skies are the darkest in

the state. Afterwards, we’ll have an opportunity, weather permitting, to behold the stars

through his telescope.
