Participating in the Hague LEGO summit? Here's how
Option 1: Submit your construction
Build your own LEGO artwork at home, take a good picture of it and send it in. Also write briefly what you have built and what it has to do with peace and justice. Save your construction, because it might get a temporary place in the exhibition in the city hall!
Submissions can be submitted until Friday, May 30, 2025
Please submit your entry using the form on this page.
Option 2: Come to a LEGO Participation afternoon
No LEGO at home? Or do you like to build together with others? Then come to one of the free LEGO Participation afternoons in the city. We provide the blocks, you provide the ideas!
Everyone is welcome – the Participation afternoons are extra fun for young builders (4+) and their supervisors. After the event, we will save all the constructions and ensure that the jury receives your entries.
