Knoxville Gem and Mineral SocietyTo assist in the promotion and education of the earth sciences.
We are a group of individuals interested in gems, minerals, the lapidary arts, and fossils. We meet once a month for programs on one of the club interests, for fellowship, and for fun. We have picnics in May and September, and a banquet in December. In other months we have monthly meetings on the 3rd Thursday of the month at 7:30 pm. The Society is open to everyone; children and youth are especially welcome. The club also goes on field trips around the area. On these field trips we dig, collect, have fun and learn. Club members share their knowledge and friendship with newcomers. If you are interested in joining contact the Membership Director or look here at our membership page.
The Knoxville Gem and Mineral Society is currently undergoing major renovations to their website. If you have any questions comments or concerns please contact KGMS by email here.
The KGMS meetings are held at Pellissipi State Community College. Directions and map to new KGSM meeting location.
We are a member of the American Federal Mineralogical Societies.
