Wonders from around the world will be presented in half a million LEGO bricks at an exciting new exhibition coming to The Novium Museum this December.
Brick Wonders will transport visitors around the world with wonders old and new, recreated from 500,000 LEGO® bricks by Warren Elsmore and his team. Beginning with the seven wonders of the ancient world, the exhibition also takes in modern, natural and historic wonders from all seven continents. Visitors will be taken on a global journey where they will see sights such as an Egyptian pyramid; the Grand Canyon; Old London Bridge; and, the International Space Station as well as everyday marvels including broadcasting and the internet.
An installation of The Great Barrier Reef creates a show-stopping highlight to the exhibition, complete with underwater lighting and sound effects, and LEGO® brick recreations of everything from corals and sponges to sea turtles and reef-dwelling fish including blue tangs, angel fish and a ray.
The exhibition will also feature 30 other LEGO® brick models, many of which are scaled to inspire building at home, as well as animated film footage and interactive LEGO® brick building areas.
A series of Make and Take sessions will give visitors the opportunity to create LEGO® brick wonders of their very own. Participants can choose from a rocket, parrot fish or a unicorn model to make and take home. Sessions cost £6.50 per model and advance booking is essential.
