We have a suggestion for an hour of beauty and contemplation this evening, at sunset.

The Chestnut Hill Skyspace at Chestnut Hill Friends Meeting was built by contemporary light artist James Turrell.  "This mesmerizing installation has become a sanctuary for anyone who values quiet contemplation and stunning visual beauty."

Some reviews:  " a beautiful, serene, and moving experience.  Lie on your back (bring pillow, blanket) and take in the light show, featuring the sky as its centerpiece"
"PURE bliss"
"it is a magical experience"

A donation of $5 is voluntary but suggested.

Weather permitting, the Sunday evening viewing begins at sunset and last 50 minutes.  Plan to arrive 10 minutes before the viewing begins.

For sunset hours, and to reserve a ticket, visit the website "Chestnut Hill Skyspace" and click "visit" which will lead you to the information you need.
