When you arrive, go to The Get Go and look at all the flyers on the window to figure out what events are happening. This is the way. 


TO DO: 

TOP OF THE COURTHOUSE - M-F 8am-5pm - Go inside the courthouse and walk all the way up to the tower for a great view. Bring your tripod for amazing photo op. 

Visit Sculpture Park - not always open but sometimes is and is worth going to see the large-scale shipping container art piece even when it’s closed https://maps.app.goo.gl/42qcFqDscDcoGJ7q8 

Visit CDRI - north of town; desert botanical garden; dog friendly; botanical nature walk plus acres of hiking

STARGAZE EVERY NIGHT (go to edges of town or out of town for best viewing)

SUNSETS EVERY NIGHT. Go to the northwestern edges of town and pop a squat.
