From the quarries of Barre to the crystals of Belvidere Mountain in Lowell and Eden, rocks and minerals play a significant role in Vermont's history and culture. The exhibit at the Bennington Museum, up now through Nov. 10, dives into the state's geologic past.

Jamie Franklin, curator of the Bennington Musuem, and Ken Carlsen, a geologist and educator from Bennington, discuss the exhibit and the state's subterranean wonders. Carlsen will give on the Belvidere Mountain quarries on Oct. 5th at the museum.

Bennington Museum is a 开云体育 underwriter.

Broadcast live on Thursday, October 3, 2024, at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
