Everything just clicks as the world’s largest LEGO art exhibition returns to The Franklin Institute.
Back in Philly for the first time since 2015, The Art of the Brick showcases over 100 intricate works of LEGO art, including several large-scale, never-before-seen creations.
The ticketed LEGO exhibition features a multi-block exhibit hall and an expansive play space, with bricks spread across five family-friendly activity stations.
The Art of the Brick runs from February 17 through November 17, 2024.
Art, science and engineering collide with the internationally recognized Art of the Brick.
The traveling exhibition expands the imagination with two immersive spaces: an exhibit hall that turns LEGOs into sophisticated works of art, and a play space that sparks creativity for kids — and the young at heart.

All 100-plus LEGO creations on display are the handiwork of contemporary artist Nathan Sawaya, the first artist ever to build a LEGO art exhibition.
Exhibit Hall
The Art of the Brick’s main attraction comprises a winding art gallery that leads you through several themed rooms and environments, ranging from corridors of classical sculptures to modern art installations that toy with the macabre.
Highlights of the hall include LEGO recreations of masterworks like Van Gogh’s Starry Night and Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, as well as original creations like a 20-foot-long (!) T. rex skeleton and Decisions, a new 112,000-piece gravity-defying installation — Sawaya’s largest work ever.
Among the other brand-new works are recreations of Basquiat’s Pez Dispenser and Frida Kahlo’s The Frame, a life-sized statue of Benjamin Franklin, and PERNiCiEM: The Endangered Species Connection, a series of 13 massive sculptures featuring endangered animals in their natural habitats.
Play Space
Right outside of the exhibit hall, Sawaya and The Franklin Institute have built the stuff of plastic dreams with a 9,000-square-foot LEGO play space.
