It’s a tradition! Each year from December thru February, the Jacksonville Area Museum hosts our annual LEGO exhibit “Building with Brick – The Art of Lego.” The museum highlights the talents of local LEGO enthusiasts, and showcases the creations of young and old for the entire community to enjoy. The exhibit will run from December 4, 2024 – February 28, 2025.
This third-annual exhibit features original and Lego kit creations from all ages and skill levels. Prizes based on public voting will be awarded in 6 categories:
1) Best Build from a Kit (all ages)
2) Best Original Build (ages 13+)
3) Best Original Build (children ages 8-12)
4) Best Original Build (children ages 0-7)
5) Best Build Highlighting Jacksonville Architecture (all ages)
6) Best Build Highlighting Illinois History (all ages)
This exhibit is one of the most popular events each year at the museum. The public will be encouraged to vote in the favorite builds, with $100 Lego gift cards awarded to the top vote-getters.
The exhibit is part of regular admission. The museum is open Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sundays from 1 to 4 p.m.
