Artemis Adventure with LEGO® Bricks launches visitors into a creative, hands-on exploration of NASA’s Artemis missions and the future of space travel. This dynamic exhibition combines large-scale LEGO sculptures with interactive engineering stations to bring space science to life. Visitors step into the roles of astronauts, engineers, and designers as they tackle real-world challenges like landing on the Moon, building lunar habitats, and preparing for life on Mars.
From designing a solar-powered Moon base to racing LEGO rovers across rugged lunar terrain, each station immerses guests in the exciting and essential work behind the Artemis program. A variety of build challenges promote STEAM learning, collaboration, and problem-solving through play, anchored by spectacular LEGO sculptures of the Apollo Lunar Module, Space Launch System, International Space Station, and more.
The experience concludes with a future-facing zone where creativity and imagination soar. Visitors design Mars habitats, bring drawings to life in interactive projections, and leave inspired to pursue their roles in space science.
Designed for a wide range of ages and abilities, Artemis Adventure with LEGO® Bricks blends open-ended play with moments of reflection and discovery. It's a space to build, experiment, and explore what it takes to reach the Moon—and what comes next.
Whether you're a LEGO fan, a future astronaut, or just space-curious, the exhibition promises discovery at every turn. Build the future. Explore the extraordinary.
Artemis Adventure with LEGO® Bricks is a traveling exhibition produced and toured internationally by Flying Fish and supported by Science World British Columbia.
