SUMMARY:Brickwrecks: Sunken Ships in LEGO Bricks
DESCRIPTION:Brickwrecks: Sunken Ships in LEGO Bricks drops visitors into centuries of maritime mystery and disaster at Mystic Seaport Museum.. The internationally touring exhibition combines massive LEGO® ship recreations with real maritime history\, creating an experience that feels part museum exhibit\, part interactive adventure. As the first American stop for the exhibition\, Mystic Seaport becomes the latest host for a showcase that has previously appeared at major maritime museums in Europe and Australia. \nThe exhibit features eleven detailed LEGO® models recreating famous shipwrecks and maritime disasters spanning thousands of years\, including the Titanic\, the Vasa\, Franklin’s Arctic expedition ships Terror and Erebus\, and the ancient Uluburun trading vessel. Created in partnership with LEGO® Certified Professional Ryan “The Brickman” McNaught\, the displays combine historical storytelling with surprisingly intricate engineering and visual detail. Some models even include cross-section cutaways revealing what happened beneath the waterline. \nInteractive experiences throughout the exhibit invite visitors to test survival scenarios\, operate a remote underwater vehicle\, experiment with ship stability\, and build LEGO® creations of their own. Alongside the models are replica artifacts\, archaeological tools\, and multimedia displays exploring how modern researchers investigate shipwrecks and what those discoveries reveal about trade\, exploration\, disaster\, and human history. The result is an exhibit that works equally well for families\, history buffs\, LEGO® fans\, and anyone who still secretly wants to touch every museum display. \n

SUMMARY:Timeless Blooms: Sola Wood Flower Wreath Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Timeless Blooms: Sola Wood Flower Wreath Workshop offers a hands-on floral design experience centered around creating spring wreaths using long-lasting sola wood flowers. Led by instructor Lisa Kelly\, the workshop guides participants through the process of building decorative wreaths that combine the look of fresh florals with materials designed to last season after season without fading or wilting. \nDuring the session\, guests will learn how to stem and arrange sola wood flowers onto either a traditional grapevine wreath base or a modern wood-bead frame. Instruction covers everything from floral preparation and composition to securing arrangements properly for balance and durability. The workshop is designed to be approachable for beginners while still offering enough creative flexibility for participants to personalize their final wreath design. \nOne of the biggest appeals of sola wood flowers is their permanence. Unlike fresh flowers\, the handcrafted blooms maintain their appearance indefinitely when kept dry\, making them ideal for home décor or gifts that continue looking fresh long after spring ends. All materials are included through a separate $40 supply fee paid directly to the instructor\, and each participant leaves with a completed wreath ready to display immediately after the workshop concludes. \n
