A collection of more than 400 specimens mined from the earth and fashioned by jewelers will open Friday at the academy in Golden Gate Park to illustrate the roles they play in every aspect of modern life. Headed down this weekend for a peek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoJack Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Umm, just saw the ticket prices, $35.00 per person, I think I'll go digging instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have fun, take some photos if they will let you, and then you can share with us other cheap sobs!!! Edit: I just thought about if they played some good old loud Rock and Roll, they could also bill it as a rock concert, about the same price for a ticket!!
