Our good friends and colleagues at UNC-Asheville are contributing to the North Carolina Science Festival with a Star Party on April 4th!
UNCA and local astronomy enthusiasts will have telescopes set up on the UNCA quad. There will be presentations in Robinson Hall - room 119 or close - prior to the viewing. I'll let you know a specific time asap, but you can bet it's around sunset!
Also on the UNCA quad on April 11 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm is a solar viewing party. If you've never looked at the sun through a specially adapted telescope, you're in for a treat! Kind of crazy hours for school kids and their families, but if you can make it . . .
