Star Struck: Solar Viewing Party with Toledo Astronomical Association (All Ages)

Get up close with the sun during this special viewing event at Glass City Metropark. Members of the Toledo Astronomical Association will be on hand with telescopes fitted with protective solar filters, allowing you and your family to safely observe our nearest star in ways you can't experience anywhere else. Whether your kids are curious about space or you're looking to deepen your own understanding of astronomy, this is a hands-on opportunity to learn from experienced stargazers. This open-house style event welcomes visitors of all ages and requires no prior astronomy knowledge. Simply show up and look through the telescopes to witness details of the sun's surface that are invisible to the naked eye. It's a great way to spend an afternoon outdoors while exploring science in a fun, interactive setting with expert guidance right there with you.
