Exquisite Events: 58th Annual Rock & Gem Show

Early September Longview Fairgrounds – Cowiltz County Event Center held the 58th Annual Rock and Gem Show!

This captivating and educational event is an absolute must-attend for anyone interested in delving into the fascinating world of rocks, geology, and earth science.

This year, I had the chance to attend this event for the first time with my eldest daughter and long-time friends, and it was a grand time.

The event showcased engaging educational displays, fun kids’ activities, delicious food, raffles, a silent auction, giveaways, and much more. I was genuinely impressed by the variety of offerings at this fantastic, free-to-attend, family-friendly event for all ages!

I was thoroughly in awe by the diverse displays, especially the one that ingeniously showcased rocks masquerading as delectable food items. The meticulous arrangement of the display could have easily fooled anyone. I was particularly captivated by the dinner plate featuring a baked potato, steak, and other plate worthy items.

My daughter and I were captivated by a display featuring rocks that emitted a vibrant glow under black light. The rocks emitted stunning shades of green, pink, purple, orange, and yellow.

The many vendors offered an extensive selection of items crafted with exquisite crystals, gems, and stones that are truly unique and beautiful.A wide range of products including jewelry, decorative pieces, and functional items were available. There’s something to suit every budget with prices spanning from low to high.

I had a fantastic time, learned a great deal, and really enjoyed how well the event came together. I am absolutely planning to come back next year.

The event was held September 7th-8th from 10am – 4-5pm at the Cowlitz County event center and located at 1900 7th Ave Longview, WA 98632.
