Things got a little wild after dark as the San Bernardino County Library (SBCL) welcomed families to Galaxy Nights: Wildlife After Dark, transforming the Lucerne Valley Janice Horst Branch into an after-hours destination filled with live wildlife, science, stargazing and hands-on discovery.

Held Saturday, Aug. 15, the event drew approximately 200 visitors from across the High Desert and beyond, with some traveling from as far as Pasadena to experience an evening designed to ignite curiosity and prove that learning doesn’t stop when the sun goes down.
