LEGOs and Nature Come Together

by Nancy Heim-berg

Using over 450,000+ LEGOs, Sean Kenney's third exhibit Nature Connects: Art with LEGO Bricks at Lauritzen Gardens brings together a display of nature's beauty with the creativity and art of the LEGOs we all know and love. The amazing exhibit is one for family and friends young and old. Everyone can relate to the days when they would spend hours putting together creations of their own with the tiny colorful bricks. 

With over 13 magnificent hand-built displays, these larger than life sculptures show the web of connections that nature sustains in everyday life. Kids can gaze as the wingspan of a monarch butterfly, see the colorful display of the peacock’s tail, or hang with the buck and his deer. 

The exhibit's interactive messaging educates on how the environment thrives on each other to survive and grow. The chain starts with the plants and goes all the way to the top of ecosystem showing the intricate necessity of species reliance on each other to live.  It also teaches visitors the effect that humans can have on the natural environment. "Play and Let It Stay Station" lets everyone interact with the LEGOs to build their own creations. It gives visitors an opportunity to take a trip back to their childhood and escape for some fun with the kids. 

This exhibit is available through May 15 from 9:00AM - 5:00PM daily, and is included with admission to the Laurtizen Gardens - $10 for adults, $5 for children 6-12 and free for garden members and children under six.
