Directions Website Contact the organization

Launched in 1947, we are dedicated to earth sciences, local geology, mining history, and lapidary and metal art education.

We offer a fully-equipped lapidary and jewelry art studio, as well as classes, field trips, and an annual gem and mineral show. Founded in 1947, the Four Corners Gem & Mineral Club, Inc., a 501(c)(3)non-profit organization, provides a great opportunity to learn about the earth sciences and the lapidary arts. The primary purpose of this organization is to collect and identify rocks, gems and minerals. With a fully equipped workshop, members can cut and polish their own specimens. Silversmithing and other associated crafts are also offered on a regular basis.

Activities include classes and workshops, informational programs, field trips, and more. In addition, the club hosts the Annual Gem & Mineral Show the second weekend in July each year. The Club offers classes in Lapidary and Stone Cutting, all levels of Silversmithing and Jewelry Making, Lost Wax Casting, Enameling and Precious Metal Clay (PMC) and more.

Came down from Creede for the weekend for the September Ring Making Course. Full house at 6 students, had to turn down three more this month. Recommended to book a seat one or two months in advance. Super fun group. Comment or DM if you're interested in October, November, or December. 2027 schedule coming soon.
