Help to secure the future of District and District Lapidary Society

For over half a century, our society has been at the forefront of teaching and preserving lapidary—the craft of transforming rough stone into beautiful gemstones.

However, we now face a significant challenge. Much of our equipment, some dating back to the 1990s, is worn out and beyond repair, and urgently needs to be replaced.

To address this, our member Allie has started a fundraising campaign on GoFundMe. If you're able to, please consider donating!

By supporting us, you’ll help preserve this living tradition and ensure that the art of lapidary continues to inspire and enrich future generations.
