On Monday, April 8th the Art Spark TX Radio Hour starts a half hour early at 1:30 pm to provide live coverage of the eclipse. Celia Hughes, host of the Art Spark TX Radio Hour, and trained audio describer will be describing the action in the sky and its effects on the environment as the moon crosses the path of the sun. Our broadcast is designed to make this rare total solar eclipse accessible and inclusive to people who are blind and visually impaired. We will also be reaching listeners who are unable to get outside for any reason during this event. Along with the description, hear from experts on the subject. The regularly scheduled episode of This Way Out will air at 2:30 pm.
