Tour the Gem Show
Gem Miner's Jubilee and Holiday Shows are a yearly exhibition and sale of some of the finest products & collectibles available to the connoisseur of Earth's treasures. We exhibit a larger show in August and a holiday gift show in November. Plus, we launched a new show in Howard County, Maryland starting in June 2022.
Each year 70+ vendors from around the country and world converge on Lebanon, Pennsylvania for a fest of gems, minerals, fossils, beads, jewelry, arts and crafts. This is an opportunity to meet source dealers, those in the trenches, scouring the Earth to bring you the finest in natural treasures.

Author of Maryland's Geology: Written for the interested layman or student with no specialized training, this book explains the basics of geological processes, and then shows how they worked to create Maryland’s beautiful and fascinating landforms.
Baltimore Bead Society: The Baltimore Bead Society, founded over 30 years ago, is comprised of bead enthusiasts, creative artists and jewelry designers. Members will be demonstrating skills and techniques at the Baltimore Bead Society Membership table. Please stop by and see bead embroidery, chain maille, stringing and kumihimo, live and in person. Members will be available to discuss the latest trends in beading and the activities and meetings available. Meetings are held at the Howard County Center for the Arts in Ellicott City, on the second Tuesday of every month, except July and August, from 6:30pm-9pm. Programs, classes and workshops provide an opportunity for learning new techniques in a supportive yet social environment.
No classes will be offered at the June 2025 event.
We look forward to seeing you at our next show!
