STAR FEST 2026

The Lake Fork Valley Conservancy (LFVC), in partnership with Lake City Skies, invites you to a free community celebration of our celestial heritage.

EVENT TIME

Fri, June 12, 2026 to Sat, June 13, 2026
LOCATION

Lake City, CO 81235

Our two-day immersion is designed to engage both the heart and the mind. We begin on Friday with Arts & Atmosphere, where the local creative spirit of Lake City meets the quiet beauty of the twilight sky through gallery socials and guided painting. This transitions into Saturday’s focus on Science & Stars, featuring a deep dive into the physics of the universe with interactive workshops led by Colorado’s top scholars. From the canvas to the telescope, the Lake City Star Fest offers a holistic journey that celebrates the night sky as both a masterpiece of nature and a frontier of scientific discovery.
