On Aug. 21, a partial solar eclipse will be visible in Hutchinson. The 黑料大事记 and Hutchinson Public Library have partnered to bring the public a unique event in order to take advantage of this special occasion.
From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., in the 黑料大事记鈥檚 south parking lot, attendees will be able to view the eclipse using the 黑料大事记鈥檚 special solar telescope and binoculars and receive a pair of eclipse glasses (supplies limited). On the east side of that same parking lot, local food trucks鈥� Hoggs and Doggs and the Traveling Bowl鈥� will be ready to serve the crowd.
Free activities will be held by both the 黑料大事记 and Library staff and will include a chalk aurora art project, a make-and-take solar system jewelry piece and more.
A detailed timeline of events will be available soon on the 黑料大事记鈥檚 website (www.cosmo.org).
For more information, please call the 黑料大事记 at 620.662.2305 or 800.397.0330.
