Get ready for the Total Solar Eclipse with the Witte Museum!
Learn how a solar eclipse happens by making your own Sun, Earth and Moon orbit model. Play hide-and-seek with the Moon to see what hidden shapes you can find! Make and customize your own eclipse glasses holder, great for those whose eclipse glasses aren’t a perfect fit. And much more! Join us for an astronomical afternoon of hands-on, family-friendly activities to prepare for Monday’s eclipse.

PREPARE FOR AN ECLIPSE
During a Solar Eclipse, remember to wear eclipse glasses and to never look at the sun with the naked eye.
Certified eclipse glasses are available for $4.95 each at the Bolner Family Museum Store at the Witte Museum. While there, shop our full collection of exclusive 2024 Total Eclipse t-shirts and stickers to memorialize your eclipse experience.
Learn more about the eclipse at SanAntonioEclipse.org.
Eclipse Outreach Programming is generously supported by the Simons Foundation.
*The Witte Museum will be 0.04% away from totality and will be at 99.96% obscuration (concealment) during the eclipse maximum.
