When is this event?
THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED AND WILL NO LONGER TAKE PLACE TODAY (SUNDAY 29TH)
Lego fans and families! What does “Home” mean to you?
What could a home in the Cairngorms National Park look like? A cabin? An eco house?
Perhaps a tree, nest, drey or dam? A river?
Use the bricks available in the National Park’s Ballater space to build something new, then leave it to inspire others and form an exhibition for all to see over the summer.
All children must be accompanied and adequately supervised by a responsible adult.
Adults do not have to be accompanied by a child 🙂
Free | Donations to Ballater Lego Club welcome
Builds will be displayed until mid-September
No booking required but space is limited in the public area.
If it looks busy, please come back later 🙂
