I found this.. See if your area has an Observatory

How can I safely view the eclipse?
NO ONE SHOULD EVER LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE SUN WITHOUT PROPER PROTECTION. In order to view the Sun safely during the eclipse, all telescopes and other viewing should be done with certifiably safe filters. The telescopes available for free viewing of the eclipse at Griffith Observatory will be equipped with proper filters. Griffith Observatory's Stellar Emporium gift shop will stock official Griffith Observatory Solarama viewing filters and Griffith Observatory Eclipse Glasses for purchase.
