We have a chance to put a static display at The Rooms in April (over Easter break)!

The Rooms would like to focus on Newfoundland-themed LEGO designs, no sets, custom builds only. Now – the connection to Newfoundland can be tenuous, think Ocean and ships, landscapes, famous scenes, nature – you make the connection for your own design!

(One great way for someone to get involved is adding to our list of Water Street businesses that LUG Members have built.)

What do we need? We need the exact measurements of your build (including height). We need some clear photos of it.

If you have any questions, reach out to exec@newfoundlug.ca
