We are now full on exhibits for 2023
Why put in a display exhibit? Because you can help us fulfill our mission to educate and engage the public’s knowledge and interest by providing labeling and brief discussions on a wide range of topics that got you interested.
Pretty rocks and minerals in a box is something anyone can do, however put your self in the visitor’s place and ask your self is that display going to do much for them if there are no labels or words in it.
