Solar Eclipse Community Event at Brooklyn Botanic Garden

Apr8
  • Apr 8 1pm-5pm
  • Brooklyn Botanic Garden

Join us in observing the effects of the eclipse on our collections. Will blooms be fooled into closing? Will leaves turn in? Participate in our Garden-wide experiment and let us know what you see. The eclipse will last from 2:10 to 4:36 p.m., peaking at 3:25 p.m.

Blankets are welcome! Outside food is not permitted but may be purchased at the Canteen.

Admission is free for all!

Free ISO-certified solar eclipse glasses provided by Warby Parker while supplies last. Please remember you should never look directly at the sun—even if you’re wearing sunglasses—without specifically designed eclipse glasses.
