About the Club
The North Seattle Lapidary and Mineral Club was founded in 1953. From the start the club has promoted the lapidary arts, rockhounding, and education. It is no accident that "lapidary" is the first word in our club's name. We emphasize lapidary arts, tumbling, making cabochons, polishing, cutting and casting, and fun!
Monthly meetings include show-and-tell, club business, and educational programs. Guests are welcome!
