WOODBRIDGE, Va. — Lights help to make the holiday season bright, and that’s what you can expect this December at the Irene V. Hylton Planetarium at C.D. Hylton High School.
The educational center in Woodbridge will hold two separate shows – one is a laser light show, and another a look at the famous bright Star of Bethlehem – will be held over the course of the next three Fridays starting tomorrow night.
Planetarium Director Tony Kilgore says tickets for the shows sell out early.
