The Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences and the Arts will hold a free event to prepare the public for the upcoming total solar eclipse.
“The Path of Totality: Preparing for the 2024 Eclipse” is a free event open to the community that will provide information about total solar eclipse that will take place on April 8, 2024. The event will focus on the science behind eclipses as well as information on how to safely view it.
The event will take place at 6:30 p.m. on February 13 in the ASMSA Creativity and Innovation Complex at 200 Whittington Ave. Free parking is available next to the building.
Participants at the event will have an opportunity to build pinhole projectors for eclipse viewing, and each attendee will also receive a pair of eclipse-viewing glasses. For more information, email outreach@asmsa.org, call 501-622-5147 or visit https://asmsa.me/fbeclipseevent24.
