ALBANY — A family day based on a current exhibit at the Albany Museum of Art has been scheduled for later this month.
Lego Family Fun Day is set for 10 a.m.-noon on March 16. The Albany Recreation and Parks Department is partnering with the museum to bring the event to the AMA.
Museum officials said the first 100 children through the door will each receive a free pair of wearable Lego glasses. The event will include a special guest — artist Mike Landers, who creates abstract art using Lego blocks.
Lander’s exhibition “Stack: Lego Works” is currently showing in the AMA East Gallery through March 30.
“This is fun that the entire family can engage in together,” AMA officials posted on the museum’s website about the event. “Come out and enjoy a variety of hands-on art activities, play games, win prizes and visit the museum’s art exhibits.”
Activities are expected to include arts and crafts, outdoor games with prizes and a scavenger hunt through the museum galleries, officials with the Recreation and Parks Department said.
Lego Family Fun Day is free and open to the public. The museum is located at 311 Meadowlark Drive.
