Super Solar Eclipse Sunday
April 7, 11:00 am –5:00 pm
Suggested Ages: All, Adult Friendly
Get ready for the once-in-a-lifetime total solar eclipse, happening April 8. Learn all about the big event in a live planetarium show. Make a pinhole viewer in a Junior Docent–led workshop. Practice looking at the Sun safely through a solar telescope. Sit for a unique solar and/or lunar face painting by Agostino Arts. Look at artists’ depictions of the sky in Collection Spotlight: The Art of Skywatching. Purchase a pair of custom HRM eclipse glasses in the Museum Shop. Plus, pose in front of a special eclipse backdrop for a memorable photo.
A total solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the face of the Sun. Though Yonkers is not in the path of totality, it will experience 91% eclipse coverage.
