SESSION 3
'Mastering the Art of Light': Learning to Use a Light Meter
Working from our rooftop overlooking Central Park, in this hands-on workshop we’ll demystify the light meter, teaching you how to take accurate readings as part of our Dark Sky mapping of Manhattan. How does light impact the ancient circadian rhythms that drive us all? Venture with us outside the building and learn to collect data.
