About this Event

Come explore the 350 minerals on view in the Mineralogical Museum, including specimens from the remarkable founding collection of Irénée du Pont alongside examples of important minerals from around the world.  An exhibition of mineral carvings is now featured in the Museum and Saturday is the last chance to see it. The Museum’s Curator will be on hand to greet visitors and there will be a hands-on opportunity to interact with some of the minerals that are shown as carvings in the exhibition.

This event is part of the University of Delaware’s Alumni Weekend. Follow the registration prompt above to be redirected to the Alumni Weekend website.
