Our History                 Next Meeting                  Newsletters


The Huntsville Gem and Mineral Society (HGMS) is a non-profit educational organization for people interested in mineralogy, geology, paleontology, lapidary arts and related fields.  Our primary purpose is to educate our members and the general public in these areas.  We accomplish this by presenting programs, shows and lectures (to school children and organizations); hosting field trips; and exchanging rocks, minerals and fossils.

We have regular monthly meetings, and special annual events, such as the Fundraising Auction, the Picnic and Rock Swap, the Gem, Jewelry, and Mineral Show (the largest in North Alabama), and the Christmas Dinner.  Plus, HGMS members have access to a state-of-the-art lapidary shop and to jewelry crafting activities, such as wire working and metalsmithing.

Guests and Visitors Always Welcome!

 

AUCTION POSTPONED

Due to rising concerns about the spread of the COVID-19 Virus and mounting city and private closures, the Huntsville Gem and Mineral Society has decided to postpone our March 21st fundraiser auction.  The auction will be held at a later date, yet to be determined.

Please check back here for more information as it becomes available.

Meanwhile, check out the catalog, watch for updates and new items, and be ready to shop!
