Brick History comes to Cambridge (but you'll need to be quick!

Overnight on Sunday, we were in the Grand Arcade in Cambridge. A shopping centre with all the shops shut. Why? To install Brick History throughout the arcade for the next two weeks!

Although our exhibitions usually go to museums and galleries, it’s not uncommon for us to be working in shopping malls. For this summer period, the Grand Arcade wanted a special exhibition that would not only be really popular with their visitors - but also COVID-19 safe and able to be placed all around the mall. Our Brick History exhibition fitted the bill perfectly!

If you’d like to see Brick History (for free!) all you need to do is to visit the Grand Arcade in Cambridge between now and Sunday 23rd August. We’ve turned one of their recently vacated units into an impromptu LEGO gallery and distributed the rest of Brick History around the whole mall. Can you find all of the 25 different scenes from history? A bit of a hint - you might have to look inside one of the stores to find the final two!
