Have you ever wondered how our tiny moon can cover the enormous sun? Join us in the gardens, and learn about the science behind both solar and lunar eclipses. Participate in a scale model demonstration, and then enjoy a safe viewing of the October 14th partial solar eclipse.

Also, learn how to prepare the best viewing experience for the upcoming April 2024 total solar eclipse. Library owned telescopes and binoculars will be available for safe, solar filtered viewing during the program.

Find out about eclipses and save viewing at nationaleclipse.com.

This program is limited to residents of Norridge and Harwood Heights. Register and fill out a safety waiver in-person at the Answers Desk or in Kids World.
