"Eclipsing Stars" has been made possible by the Simons Foundation and is part of its 'In the Path of Totality' initiative. FEED and Erie Arts & Culture have teamed up to participate in the In the Path of Totality, which has been developed to ensure that the millions of people in the path of totality of the April 8, 2024 solar eclipse have an unforgettable experience. The Simons Foundation’s gift to Erie Arts & Culture allowed artist, Alex “lonesav” Staley, and astrophysicist and folklorist, Dr. Moiya McTier, to collaborate with FEED on the development of this new immersive experience called “Eclipsing Stars,” which aims to elicit wonder and new understanding about the April 8 eclipse.
