The Longmont Museum’s newest hands-on exhibit, “Build: Design & Create with LEGO!,” opens Saturday, June 1. Visitors can build and race a LEGO car, tackle an architectural challenge, save the world with a wondrous invention, or explore and play as far as their imagination takes them.

“Whether you’re a seasoned LEGO enthusiast or just discovering the magic of these iconic bricks, there’s something for everyone to enjoy,” said Erik Mason, Longmont Museum director.


The exhibit will also showcase a gallery of intricate and imaginative custom LEGO creations crafted by regional artists.

“We hosted a LEGO exhibit ten years ago, and it was one of our most popular exhibits ever," said Mason. “This felt like a great summer to bring it back a decade later, but even better, as we celebrate designing and creating our own building with the Museum expansion.”

The Museum is in the middle of a capital campaign to fund the addition of a permanent, dedicated children’s gallery and expanded feature gallery, among other improvements.

The “Build: Design & Create with LEGO!” exhibition opens Saturday, June 1 and runs through January 12, 2025. Cost is $8 for adults and $5 for students, seniors and veterans. Longmont Museum members and children age 3 and under are free. Admission is only 25 cents with a qualifying Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) card, and the second Saturday of each month is free.

Installation photo opportunities and interviews with the curators are available this week and next by contacting Joan Harrold at joan.harrold@longmontcolorado.gov or 970-380-4943.
