Luna the Moongazing Moth
23rd November, 2023 : 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Free
On Thursday 23rd November, a giant, glow-in-the-dark moth will be fluttering into Kirkcaldy. Celebrate the work of Climate Action Fife with us and have a closer look at our moon through Luna the Moongazing Moth’s telescope.
This five-meter sculpture of a ‘Luna moth’ sits on an electric cargo bike, with a powerful telescope mounted to her frame. She’s touring the country to promote the work of community projects funded through The National Lottery Community Fund’s Climate Action Fund. This fund supports local groups across the UK taking action to tackle climate change.
Luna moths use the moon for navigation. Gaze into Luna’s onboard telescope for an awe-inspiring glimpse of the moon’s surface. We hope you will leave the event inspired to help protect the environment and become more active in local environmental projects.
Luna is visiting Kirkcaldy Esplanade from 5:30pm – 8:30pm. As well as meeting Luna and taking part in a bit of moongazing, there will be fun activities for all ages to get involved in.
