​The Carmel Valley Gem and Mineral Society is a non-profit, educational organization dedicated to promoting the study of mineralogy and geology; to encourage the collecting of specimens and the practice of the lapidary arts; to promote field excursions to mineral locations and further the education of all.      
   
CVGMS is a group of individuals with a common interest in the various aspects of the earth sciences and lapidary arts as applied to minerals and fossils and gems and jewelry. CVGMS was formed in 1954 as a California corporation meeting originally in Carmel Valley, California. Meetings were also held in Carmel and Monterey until a relationship was established with the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural history where the members currently meet monthly. Member meetings are open to the public. 


Our meetings are held at the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History, (click here to go to the museum).

Our next gathering will be June 22, 2025. We will have the annual Club picnic at Whispering Pines Park starting at 11am. We will have a BBQ and are asking for members to bring a desert or side to share, also we would ask for you to bring your own plates and utensils and if you want something besides water, you should bring it. This is also our Club Rock Auction, donate some rocks and then buy some rocks, this is a lot of fun!!!
Dues are due and will be collected at meetings. Our meetings are on the second Friday of every month at 7:00 pm, except in June, our club picnic and December, located at The Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History, 165 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, CA 93950.
