Every so often the sun, moon, and Earth align just right to put on a spectacular show! On April 8th, Ohio will experience a one-in-a-lifetime Total Solar Eclipse; an event that won’t occur again in Ohio until 2099. Join us at Glass City or Oak Openings Preserve for a fun, safe viewing of this historic solar wonder.

A family-friendly event at Glass City will offer prime views of the eclipse on the riverfront of downtown Toledo. Watch the sky through telescopes with solar filters and enjoy a Kids Zone with eclipse-themed activities. Eclipse viewing glasses will be available to borrow. Food and beverages are available for purchase at The Garden by Poco Piatti.

Duration of totality: 1 minute, 56 seconds

This event is rain or shine. Even if clouds block the eclipse, stop by the Kids Zone to learn about what’s happening above the clouds.

All Ages
Meet at Glass City Metropark, Market Hall
