You would be surprised where you can display. Soren and I were at a library
last month discussing the finer points of building when they approached us
to do a display (that's this weekend). I've also seen a display at the
airport. (I don't recall if it was Denver International, or the old
Stapleton airport)
The point is to be seen with the bricks. Many people will approach YOU
rather than the other way around if they see your stuff. I've taken to
bringing bricks to work and building during my lunch break. Even on business
trips. It's a great ice breaker too :-)
