Go Ahead...Gembellish Yourself!

It's almost here. Kingston Lapidary and Mineral Club presents Gemstorm 2016 at Portsmouth Olympic Harbour on October 15 from 10 am to 6 pm and October 16 from 10 am to 5 pm. Admission is only $3 per person and children 12 and under get in free when accompanied by an adult. You will find a great selection of fossils, semi precious stone slabs and cabochons, faceted stones, jewellery and beads. The ever popular children's mine and jewellery making workshop will also be making a return appearance.

Now what will you do with all of those pretty stones?  Our classes resume on September 10. You can learn to: work with metals and stones in the basic silver smith course, create wire woven jewellery, fabricate beads and embellishments in polymer clay, rivet, lost wax cast, etch, and so much more. The shop is open on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings beginning September 6. An experienced stone cutter will help you to make your very own cabochons.
