Celebrate Manhattanhenge with the American Museum of Natural History

On June 12th, the American Museum of Natural History will be hosting a lecture and block party to celebrate and view Manhattanhenge live. The lecture will be presented at the LeFrak Theater and the block party will have Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra playing the night away.

Join Museum Senior Scientist Jackie Faherty for a 3D presentation about the science and history behind Manhattanhenge, the phenomenon when the setting Sun perfectly aligns with the cross streets of the grid of Manhattan to create a stunning visual spectacle, using the Museum’s powerful OpenSpace visualization software.
