Workshop overview:

Safety is one of the most important—and misunderstood—topics in outdoor lighting. While many assume that more or brighter light automatically makes us safer, poorly designed lighting can create glare, reduce visibility, and contribute to light pollution.

Join experts in lighting design, crime prevention, and dark sky conservation as they explore the evidence behind safer, more effective nighttime lighting and how thoughtful lighting design can improve both the character and safety of spaces while protecting the night.

From simple improvements around your own home to large-scale lighting initiatives, you'll leave with a practical communication toolkit and ready-to-use talking points to help advocate for better lighting and make a meaningful difference in your community.
