Join us for special presentations each day in the ‘Vail’ room on the first floor.
“Wulfenite – The Official State Mineral of Arizona”
Time: 2 PM
Location: Denver Marriott’s ‘Vail’ room on the first floor
This event is open to the public with free admission and free parking.
The Sunday Evening Program is one of the best opportunities for people to learn, first-hand, some of the real-life stories and perspectives behind these incredible minerals. Each year, we assemble a special panel of seasoned experts to share their thoughts, stories and experiences in their pursuit of minerals.
Mineral-collecting pioneers, such as Edward Swoboda, Peter Bancroft, Bill Larson, David Wilber, Charlie Key, and many more have graced our stage. After the presentation, we open up the floor to questions and answers and always get lively discussions going. This quickly becomes a standing-room-only event, so get here early!
This Sunday, the Second Generation is coming out front to share their stories, experiences, and thoughts on the changing mineral world, as they’ve seen it throughout the years.
This is a perspective that is truly unique, as each of these presenters has at least two generations of experience under their belts.
Join us at 6:00 PM for cocktails and snacks, followed by the main event at 7:30 PM.
