To be clear: this is NOT a WAMALUG event - some of us may be attending however. (article source unknown): LEGO Company Invites Washington, DC-Area Children to Build Giant LEGO® Harry PotterTM Mural At Union Station Saturday & Sunday, November 3rd & 4th 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. Children Entertainment: 11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. each day Washington, DC-area children have an opportunity to "build their imaginations" using thousands of LEGO® bricks to create a giant mural of popular characters from the exciting world of Harry PotterTM. Designed to withstand thousands of shuffling feet and little fingers, the two-dimensional mural will measure 7 ½' x 11' when complete and depicts Harry Potter, Hermione Granger(tm), Ron Weasley(tm) and the infamous Professor Snape. Children are invited to help build the mural by placing handfuls of LEGO bricks in the appropriate space, with guidance from any child's ultimate mentor - LEGO Master Model Builders. While at Union Station, children not only will be able to participate in building the mural, they'll also have the chance to "guess the number of bricks" it takes to complete the entire design. The closest guess will be awarded a one-foot-tall LEGO Harry Potter statue, custom made in the Model Design Shop in Enfield, Connecticut, from 573 LEGO bricks.

(...) Thanks so much for the information. Children aren't my thing. Too bad there isn't any "adult" oriented activities. We like Harry Potter too! :-) Katie (23 years ago, 1-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.us.wamalug, lugnet.loc.us.md, lugnet.loc.us.dc, lugnet.loc.us.va)
