The Lubbock Gem and Mineral Society annual show and sale will be on September 27 & 28, 2025, at the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center. This annual event is the Society’s largest fundraiser and, thus, the largest source of operating capital.
This show will have dealers from around the country selling minerals, jewelry, fossils, beads, crystals, rocks, specimens, rough, slabs, cabochons, and geode cracking.
Demonstrations include cabochon fashioning, gemstone faceting, silversmithing, and wire wrapping. A fluorescent tent will showcase rocks and minerals that seem to glow in the dark, and there will be displays of the private collections of club members. Presentations by local geologists will go on throughout the day. There will be a club sales table, a silent auction, hourly door prizes, and 2 Grand prizes. The kids’ area will have games and educational material, with prizes that are easy to win.
We have dealers coming from Arizona, New Mexico, Arkansas, Louisiana, and, of course, Texas. This is more than shopping for rocks; our demonstrations, lecture series, and displays by our club members are first-rate, too. We want this to be the best family-friendly experience anyone can have.
If you have never been to a Gem and Mineral show, you have to make it to ours this year, you won't be disappointed.
