Celebrate 72 years of all that glitters and gleams with the Oregon Agate and Mineral Society at their annual fancy rock show. The event includes live demonstrations with "a big saw," a dig pit, handcrafted jewelry, a display featuring the glamorous Oregon state gem, and, perhaps most importantly, a table of "rocks that look like food." Proceeds from the show will be donated to OMSI’s Hancock Field Station in the John Day River Valley, a geologist's dream spot rife with fossil-rich rock formations.
