The Nature Institute (TNI) is hosting a celebration for one of only two lunar eclipses that can be viewed in the Riverbend area this year. On May 15, 2022, from 7-11:15 PM, TNI will offer moon-themed games, movies, music, guided hikes, snacks, drinks, a prime eclipse viewing location with telescopes, binoculars, and more, on the TNI grounds. The eclipse will begin at 8:32 PM and will reach totality at 11:11 PM. Registration for this event is available on the TNI website. The cost will be $10 for TNI members and $12 for non-members.

Lauren Scull, Director of Education, and Dave Schiber, Environmental Educator, are excited about this event. “When I saw we would be having a total lunar eclipse this spring and it would be early enough for people to actually see, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to offer a fun, educational event. Not only do you get to see the eclipse, but you will also get to enjoy a view of the Mighty Mississippi River,” says Dave.
