Traveler’s Moon Gem & Mineral Show

Fri. May 15th-Sun. May 17st

We are so excited to have the honor of hosting the 1st Gem and Mineral show ever on the Outer Bank!

  • Hosting a gem show indoors gives vendors a dependable, climate-controlled environment that protects delicate stones and handcrafted pieces from sun, wind, and moisture, ensures consistent lighting to showcase true colors and sparkle, and provides a secure, comfortable space that attracts steady foot traffic and encourages longer browsing and higher sales.

  • Being part of the island’s first gem show places vendors at the heart of a brand-new, enchanted marketplace—an eager community of buyers who’ve had nowhere like this to discover treasures until now—offering unmatched visibility, early-adopter buzz, and the chance to forge lasting connections in a thriving, magical setting.

  • A centrally located gem show on the Outer Banks offers vendors unmatched visibility and foot traffic from year-round residents and a steady stream of tourists, increasing sales potential and brand exposure. Vendors also benefit from cross-promotion with local businesses, seasonal events that draw diverse crowds, and the region’s reputation for unique, artisanal goods, making it an ideal marketplace to build repeat customers and lasting wholesale relationships.

  • Hosting a gem show in May offers vendors unparalleled exposure—it's peak tourist season on the island, with beautiful weather drawing larger crowds and longer browsing hours, increasing foot traffic and sales potential; vendors also benefit from heightened local and visitor energy, better networking opportunities with fellow artisans, and the chance to showcase seasonal, sun-inspired collections when buyers are most eager to discover unique treasures.

Meet Your Host & Organizer

Hello beautiful souls — I’m Minyka, owner and founder of Traveler’s Moon, and I am overjoyed to welcome you to our Gem & Mineral Show celebrating our 6th anniversary.

For over 17 years I’ve worked in sales business management, and for more than a decade I’ve walked the metaphysical path. Building Traveler’s Moon has been a dream brought to life — a sanctuary where seekers, healers, and curious hearts can gather, learn, and be nourished by the magic of earth’s treasures. This show is a heartfelt celebration of community, craft, and the deep, quiet wisdom held in stone.
