(Southeast corner of Main Avenue and Speedway Blvd.)
Where: Oasis Motel, 1701 N. Oracle Road (formerly at the Executive Inn) and a Tent Show located at 345 W. Speedway. 2011 note: This show has been plagued by conflicts of various sorts, and ABD has tried to keep the information accurate. Although the show was formerly at the Executive Inn, that property is now apparently bank-owned, and the show decided to move to the Oasis Motel, which is nearby. 2009 note: Not be confused with Executive Inn Gem, Mineral & Fossil show being held at The Best Western Executive Inn (333 W. Drachman St.)--ABD doesn't know if any sort of mineral show will go forward there in 2011.
What: This show was dominated by Moroccan fossil exhibitors who offer plates, tables, sink basins, and other items. There was one bead vendor and a vendor with Madagascar minerals. Take a new look at the show this 2011 gem show, and we'll all see what's there!
( Sahara Fossils, a vendor with this show.)
Inside or Out: Outside with covered tents.
Parking:Ample in a gravel-dirt lot directly south of the location.
Food: Sorry, Arizona Bead Dog did not notice one.
Rest rooms: Portable.
2011 show dates: Saturday, January 29th through Sunday, February 13th.
Show hours: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Shuttle routes: None at this time.
