“Adventures in Prospecting” at the Gateway!

Stake your claim to fun at "Adventures in Prospecting" on Sunday, Oct. 7 from 1-4 pm. Gateway kicks off our glittering new “Gold Fever” exhibit with a day full of flakes, nuggets, and a stagecoach courtesy of Wells Fargo.

This FREE event will feature real live prospectors, period costumes, an assay office, and plenty of hands-on activities. Gold panning, metal detecting, and a working sluice-box demonstration are sure to make this event a “mother lode” of fun!
