We are excited to announce that our annual High Desert Test Sites Gem/Mineral Expo will be hosted this year at the Hammer Museum Store as part of the A-Z West Works pop-up, organized by Andrea Zittel. Each year the HDTS Gem/Mineral Expo features a spectacular array of stones for sale at prices from $2 to $200. Stones are sourced from Quartzite, Arizona where vendors of rocks, gems, minerals, fossils and everything else imaginable create one of the largest open air gem/mineral flea markets in the world.

Also in connection with the pop-up we are releasing our 2018 Limited Edition Postcard Series. This year’s postcard edition features twelve photographs of the desert by Sarah Lyon. The group of images titled “From Nowhere to There" has been generated over the course of two decades of cross country travel through the desert and beyond. The full set of postcards are also available on our online store and at the HDTS HQ.
