Huntsville Gem, Jewelry, and Mineral Show<\/a> <\/strong>is right around the corner, and you’re invited to join the fun!<\/p>\nThis year’s show promises to be bigger and better than ever! This will be the first show since cancelling last year’s show due to COVID-19!<\/p>\n
The vendors are coming back, so there will be plenty of minerals, fossils, jewelry, and other goodies<\/strong> from the great vendors you know and love! Lapidary arts demonstrations, blacklight display room, fossils display, gem flume and kids area<\/strong>, refreshments and more.<\/p>\nTheir expanded Kids’ Activity Area<\/strong> will include all the familiar activities your family loves, plus new activities such as building crystal models, classifying rocks, and identifying minerals using a “hardness” test.<\/strong> Younger children will enjoy making fossil “rubbings” to take home<\/strong> and getting their picture taken with their 8-foot tall T-Rex skeleton<\/strong>! There’ll also be a scavenger hunt (inside the show)!<\/p>\nPLUS! In honor of the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 15 lunar mission (July 26 \u2013 August 7, 1971) they’re going to display a real Moon Rock collected by Apollo 15 astronauts<\/strong>!<\/p>\n
