Lee-Whedon in Medina hosting events for total eclipse
Press Release, Lee Whedon Memorial Library
MEDINA – Lee Whedon Memorial Library will be holding programs in March and April in recognition of the total solar eclipse happening on April 8.
Orleans County is in the path of totality for the eclipse, making it an ideal place to view the astronomical event.
A mobile planetarium from the Challenger Learning Center will be at the library Thursday, March 21 from 3 to 5 p.m. Geared for ages 5 to 16, this is a wonderful opportunity for youth to be introduced to the movements of the night sky. Presentations are in 20-minute blocks. Call the library to sign up today!
The library will also be hosting a viewing of the solar eclipse from their location on April 8. The program begins at 2:30 p.m. and will include activities, games and snacks for all ages, followed by a chance to see the eclipse. Safe solar-viewing glasses will be provided at no cost.
Eclipse viewing glasses are available to anyone in the community and can be picked up at the library through April 8, while supplies last.
To register for our events, call (585) 798-3430 or visit the library.
