About
ROM’s popular ID Clinics are a great way to identify your mysterious found treasures, all while engaging with ROM staff and volunteers. Bring your rocks, minerals, gems, and fossils and ROM experts will help identify them for you. Clinics are free with RSVP. All participants are required to register for a ticket (kids included).
