World’s Largest Lego Display Coming To Philadelphia This Winter
How awesome! World’s largest Lego display coming to Philadelphia this winter. It’s cold, the Eagles season is over, and the Phillies don’t start for a few months, so what is there to do with your friends and family you ask? Well how about seeing the world’s largest lego display at the Franklin Institute.
“The Art of the Brick,” a traveling exhibition featuring the world’s largest display of Lego art, arrives at the museum Saturday, Feb. 17. Created by New York-based contemporary artist Nathan Sawaya, more than 100 pieces, made from millions of toy bricks, will be on view. Visitors will see replicas of Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” and Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa” all made from legos! I saw it back in 2015 and it’s truly amazing.
“The Art of the Brick” — the first major museum exhibition to use only Lego bricks.
Some other exhibits to check out:
Wondrous Space – Journey through the cosmos as you explore this immersive, multisensory, two-story exhibit designed to inspire an excitement for space science.
Fels Planetarium – Look up and see what the actual night sky would look like without the interference of weather, pollution, or city lights.
The Giant Heart – a life size heart that’s been around for over 50 years let’s your explore what the most vital organ looks like from the inside out.
Tickets for “The Art of the Brick” will go on sale early next year. The exhibition is scheduled to run through Monday, Sept. 2.
Remember the “Abbott Elementary” episode when they went to the Franklin Institute? Barbara with her sleep apnea machine and they kids thought she was an alien? Hahah Literally laughed out loud. Then Janine and Gregory kissed! I’m so glad the show is coming back in February.
