Oregon Agate and Mineral Society

About

Oregon Agate & Mineral Society (OAMS) formed in 1933 with twelve rock hobbyists in the laboratory of one of its founders. The club's charter was to promote the rock hobby and educate those interested in learning about the lapidary arts, in collecting, and in just enjoying Earth's many natural geological treasures. The club continues this charter today, with programs, workshops, and participation in local and national exhibitions of the rock hobby.
