About "Brick Safari" at Brookfield Zoo in Chicago:
Brookfield Zoo's new summer exhibit in the Chicago area, "Brick Safari" featured more than 40 life-sized animals made out of LEGOs. One was able to take a selfie, learn some interesting animal facts and some LEGO facts, like how many bricks it took to build each animal. Many of the sculptures were based on some Brookfield Zoo favorites, such as the lion, giraffe, snow leopard, and pangolin. This exhibit at Brookfield Zoo celebrated science, art and play. "The reason that art is so important is because when you start taking bricks such as Legos and children start to build with them they are starting to exercise their critical thinking and problem-solving skills, but they are also using their artistic creativity to engage in these problem-solving skills. Architecture and environmental design are very important to professional animal care. A lot of people don’t realize when they come to a (zoo or aquarium) that there are more than just the animal care specialists. There are architects, exhibit designers, veterinarians — people who are using science, engineering, technology and math in very artistic ways to make sure that there is a high-quality of life for animals in the zoo's care. That’s why Brookfield Zoo wanted to have the "Brick Safari" exhibit and the lego blocks promo because it showed the connection between all of that.
