This is the 9th annual occurrence of this event! The show floor is in Grand Hall 8, which is in the lower level of the main building. Parking available onsite (the venue may collect for parking, out of my control).
24 professional dealers of all things of geologic origin will bring their items to display and sell, mostly at sub-retail pricing or better. Some dealers will make wholesale type deals for quantity buyers.
Many dealers will be on their return trip from the world-famous Tucson, Arizona shows, and will be loaded down with the newest finds and creations, as well as tons (quite literally!) of your favorite lapidary and other artist created items.
There will be thousands of mineral specimens for collectors of every level, from beginner to advanced expert. There are also lots of items from our local area and region, from spectacular "grape-jelly" Jackson's Crossroads amethyst, to the lustrous mirror bright ruthless from Graves Mountain, my personal favorite!
Fossils are always available, as well as jewelry from local and international smiths. Gemstones for makers will be plentiful.
This event is great for families, adult tickets are $8, but kids 12 and younger are free! Admission is good for all three days, just keep the wristband.
