Fossils can be found in our own backyards! Learn how to mine and safely hunt for fossils and geodes.

Millions of years ago, Indiana was home to ancient creatures and plants that we no longer see today. They have left clues to their existence in the rocks and rivers in our area – ACPL will help you to find these lost treasures! This program teaches how to search for and carefully excavate fossils and gemstones and how to identify common types.

Summer SPARK brings amazing events, creative programming, and fantastic prizes to everyone!  Get started at www.acpl.info/spark.  Summer SPARK is generously funded by the Foellinger Foundation, Friends of the Allen County Public Library and the Allen County Public Library Foundation.  

Space is limited: register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins. Accessibility needs? Please contact ask@acpl.info as soon as possible - we’d love to help.
