Details:

On October 14, 2023, individuals and communities across North America will have the chance to see an annular solar eclipse. This type of eclipse is commonly referred to as a “ring of fire” eclipse and is different from a “total” solar eclipse.  A total solar eclipse is one of nature’s most incredible events. On April 8, 2024, observers across North America will have the opportunity to experience this phenomenon. This show will teach audience members what to expect on eclipse day, how to safely view the eclipse, and why it will be worth it to travel to the path of totality!


Cost per Ticket: $12

Limited seating. No refunds.
