This event is co-hosted by Cloverlea Foundation and the director of the Belk Observatory.
Continuing our intentions of hosting programs aligned with solstices and equinoxes, we're celebrating the shortest day of the year together with some daytime observing of our home star the sun and its sunspots!
The program will be at Belk Observatory and the surrounding field for the experience from 12p-2p on 12/20. Explore the planet walk, see the sun through solar filters and telescopes.
More details with driving instructions and expectations will be sent to registrants via link!
We will still host the event with cloudy weather. In the event of heavy rain or other inclement weather, the event will be cancelled.
