Dear Petoskey Stone Festival Supporters,

For 20 years, the Petoskey Stone Festival has brought together families, rockhounds, small businesses, volunteers, and visitors to celebrate Michigan’s state stone and the spirit of Northern Michigan. What began as a small local gathering has grown into a beloved annual tradition — powered entirely by volunteers and supported by our community.
