Calling all LEGO enthusiasts
The LEGO contest and exhibition at BMAC cultivates creativity and artistic appreciation for visitors of all ages.
The Brattleboro Museum & Art Center’s (BMAC) 19th annual LEGO contest & exhibit returns to the museum Thursday through Monday, October 8 to 12. Scores of fanciful original creations by LEGO builders of all ages will fill the museum’s galleries.
The creativity and craftsmanship of all contestants will be celebrated at an awards presentation on Thursday, October 8, at 5:30 pm.

Special awards will be given out by Brattleboro Subaru for best vehicle, by Foard Panel for best home or building, by Chroma Technology for best use of light or color, and by Global Precision for best use of moving parts. Winners of these special awards will each receive a $100 gift card to the LEGO Store.
