Rockfest is coming up at Tellus Museum
If your child is into cool rocks, the annual Rockfest rock show at Tellus Museum, June 14 and 15, is the place to be. Kids will be able to see thousands of rocks and minerals, crack open geodes, see how rocks are made into jewelry, and do geology-themed activities.
Pro tip: Many of the rocks and gems on display will be for sale by vendors, so set expectations — and maybe a shopping budget — with your child ahead of time. If you want to just look and not buy anything, in my experience, the vendors are totally fine with that, especially when dealing with children who love rocks and gems. After all, most of the vendors are rock lovers, too.
The event will run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, although some activities will end at 4 p.m.
Admission to Rockfest is covered by general admission to the museum.
