Please join the builders of Awesome Black Creativity, Dave Kaleta and Richard Dryden. Kaleta and Dryden appeared on LEGO Masters in 2021. They will discuss the inspiration behind their artistry. In addition, they will explain the process of selecting the 27-figures that celebrate contemporary and historical Black creatives across disciplines such as contemporary dance, photography, music, film, culinary arts, activism, and more. Young people and their families are welcome to participate in our brick-building workshop.
Awesome Black Creativity (ABC), a celebration of Black figures in LEGO® Bricks, will be on display at the Gail Borden Public Library from January 15 through February 27, 2025. This interactive exhibition of LEGO brick-built figures, an A–Z series spanning history and various disciplines, will inspire guests to think about building in new, innovative ways while providing the opportunity to make their own creations.
In partnership with Kaleta and Dryden, and designed and developed by DuPage Children’s Museum. To learn more, please visit www.gailborden.info.
