Once again, the Orton Museum will participate in the Central Ohio Mineral, Fossil, Gem & Jewelry Show. This annual event, sponsored by the Columbus Rock & Mineral Society, is now in its 46th year. The theme is "Colorful World of Minerals," and as always, there will be an emphasis on STEM education. The Orton Museum will have five displays, and a rock-mineral-fossil-gem identification table, where you can come and have your unknown specimens identified by experts in the field as you learn about the techniques they use. Dale Gnidovec will deliver a talk on both days of the event. This is always a great experience for the whole family!
