Lights, Cameras, Rocks!

Saturday, June 28th, 2025

On Saturday, June 28th from 11am-3pm, the Richard W. Hutchinson Geoscience Collaborative Suite at Western University (North Campus Building room 120) will be hosting a public event – Lights, Camera, Rocks! Try taking pictures of your favourite rocks, minerals, fossils and meteorites and posting them for everyone to see! Learn how lighting can improve your images and receive a free mineral photo taken by a professional photographer!

As always, this public afternoon at the Richard W. Hutchinson Geoscience Collaborative Suite will also include beautiful exhibitions of rocks, minerals, fossils and meteorites from around the world. Please use caution when taking your pictures as some people may not want to be included in your photos. We look forward to your visit!
