Due to the unbelievable demand for Solar viewing glasses,

filters and other items, we are sorry to say that we are all sold out. There has been an incredible demand for all of these items,over the past weeks.

We are over-whelmed with the response and the calls from all over Canada and the United States, but our suppliers have run out of everything.

New Eyes Old Skies will be hosting SOLAR OBSERVING

on our patio piazza this Monday, August 21. You are invited to watch the partial eclipse safely on a live video as well as live streaming from NASA. Do bring your own solar eclipse glasses and your solar filters for cameras and set up on our patio if you would like. Come early to the store for the best spots available.
