PORT ANGELES — Local fossil hunter John Cornish will give a talk titled “Geology Rocks” in the upstairs conference room at The Landing mall, 115 E. Railroad Ave., on Friday night.
Families are welcome, and admission is a $5 donation, with proceeds to benefit future gem-, mineral- and fossil-oriented community events.
Cornish, who’s lived in Port Angeles for a couple of decades, is a seeker of fossils and crystals around the world.
He’s known for unearthing a significant whale fossil outside Port Angeles in August 1993. Today the paleontological specimen is on display in the “Hot Times” gallery at the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture in Seattle.
Randolf Frederick Co., the art studio in The Landing, is host of Friday’s event.
For information, phone the studio at 360-797-1718.
