Consider finding a small local museum, school, or club where you can 
install a display on "extended loan" (what was once called "permanent 
loan" in museum parlance, perhaps still in some places; until a number 
of us began deprecating the term as illogical).

Of course, there are risks to such an arrangement, such as theft or loss 
of material, and changes in administrations that find you receiving 
messages to "get those rocks out of here" within 3 days.  Installing 
such a display can be rewarding, but requires explicit written 
agreements and vigilance on the part of the lender--as well as a cordial 
and open communication line between you and the institution of interest.


Good luck,
Don
