Towers of Tomorrow with LEGO® Bricks

Build some fun into your summer at Museum of History & Industry (MOHAI) with the “Towers of Tomorrow with LEGO® Bricks,” which lets visitors explore the amazing world of architecture through detailed LEGO models of famous buildings from around the world.

“Towers of Tomorrow” features stunning LEGO replicas of 20 iconic structures, including the Empire State Building, Sydney Opera House, and Burj Khalifa. These models are crafted by Ryan McNaught, an Australian LEGO expert and one of only twenty-one LEGO Certified Professionals globally. Each model showcases the creativity, engineering, and cultural significance of these architectural marvels.

In addition to the incredible displays, visitors can get hands-on in the interactive Build Zone. Here, you can build your own skyscrapers, bridges, or cityscapes using thousands of LEGO bricks, allowing your creativity to flow and bringing your ideas to life.

The exhibit also shares the fascinating history of LEGO, a company that started in a small carpentry workshop in Denmark. Founded by Ole Kirk Kristiansen in 1932, LEGO has grown into the world’s largest toy manufacturer. The name “LEGO” comes from the Danish words “LEG GODT,” which mean “play well,” highlighting the company’s dedication to creating quality toys that inspire imagination and play.

Running until September 22, 2024, “Towers of Tomorrow with LEGO® Bricks” offers a fantastic opportunity for families, LEGO fans, and architecture lovers to see and create something special.
