The Nordic Heritage Museum’s summer exhibition in Seattle, Washington is Danish Modern: Design for Living, and what is more Danish than LEGO®? In that spirit, the Museum will host the fifth annual LEGO Workshop for Kids from 10:00 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, July 1, 2014.

Led by Dan Parker, local Certified LEGO® Professional, the morning is sure to be a fun time for kids ages 5 to 12.

Kids can spend time making their own creations with the large supply of LEGO® bricks andspecialty pieces, or they can join one of Parker’s break-out classes on LEGO® tricks and techniques. This is a perfect opportunity to explore various aspects of LEGO® design along with other LEGO® enthusiasts!
