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've just 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.
