Schiele Museum Gem Mining

/ July 07, 2022

The library is partnering with the Schiele Museum to learn about gem mining! Using a running water sluice, kids ages 6 and up will learn and use identification and sorting techniques to find, examine, and classify minerals. Treasure seekers may keep the gemstones they find. Join us on this adventure!

Registration opens two weeks before the event. There is a 10 a.m. and an 11 a.m. program. Please register at https://www.hickorync.gov/calendar/events/category/library/day/2022-07-22/.
