Seriously!Ī bucket of LEGOs has different outcomes every time they’re dumped out. The fascination with LEGOs that hit our Capital City is part of a worldwide ‘Lego Cult’. Two of Columbus’ best places for exhibiting creativity have big plans to keep building on Lego-mania this winter. There is also a replica of the Ohio State University football stadium this is an award-winning creation I felt privileged to see with my own eyes. One of the local exhibits features an entire downtown Columbus, Ohio streetscape with several blocks of familiar skyscrapers. Obvious connoisseurs and LEGO fanatics from right here in Buckeye Central have put talent and energy into interlocking hundreds and thousands of these building blocks. The simplicity of design has a lot to do with LEGOs staying power it has remained virtually unchanged in design, though, today’s building bricks come in a variety of colors and hundreds of shapes and sizes.

Both the Columbus Art Museum (CMA) and Center of Science and Industry (COSI) are championing creative ways Legos are very much a part of playtime in modern day. If you liked Lincoln Logs and LEGOs as a kid, you’re probably not alone! These building toys are as inspiring today as they ever were.
