We’re hosting dozens of free workshops across Toronto in partnership with the Toronto Public Library to help attendees safely enjoy the total solar eclipse on April 8 in several different ways!
Astronomers from the University of Toronto will help participants make their own pinhole solar viewers, look at the surface of the sun through telescopes equipped with solar filters, and learn about the geometry of the eclipse by creating their own scale model of the Earth-Moon-Sun system.
A limited number of eclipse glasses will be available for workshop attendees to take home.
