Geode Cracking at Frazier Festival
Join us on the sidewalk outside Almanac Supply Co. on Saturday, May 23, from 12-7 PM for a little explosive fun, geode-style!
As part of the Frazier Festival along Frazier Ave in NorthShore, Chattanooga, we're bringing back one of our favorite hands-on experiences: cracking open real geodes to reveal the sparkling surprise hidden inside.
Pick your geode (or bring your own from home!), and we'll pop it open and reveal crystals formed over millions of years. No two are the same, and that's half the magic!
This is a drop-in experience, no tickets needed. Just swing by, join the fun, and see what treasures are waiting for you beneath the surface.
While you’re here, explore the Frazier Festival—shop local makers, visit neighborhood favorites, and make a full day of it on Frazier Ave.
While supplies last. All ages welcom
