Northeast Center of Conchology and Sealife // Jewels of the Sea
Ron Glasser, Naturalist / Museum Owner
The Center represents over 40 years of collecting seashells. In 2012, my wife and I established the “Jewels of the Sea” museum in south Troy, NY. In addition to a physical location, we have a virtual museum which allows us to bring the experience to more people through 3D images. The museum can take to the road bringing programs to schools, libraries, youth groups, senior centers and anyone interested in our unique exhibit.
Open the wonders of seashells and life in the ocean to everyone, both those who have an inherent connection with these jewels and the creatures that share the oceans with them, and those with whom the oceans are a mysterious environment.
