About This Event

In celebration of our planet, MODA invites families to build eco-friendly creations that celebrate and protect the Earth! Using LEGO® bricks, kids can design structures, landscapes, and inventions that promote sustainability—think solar-powered buildings, wildlife sanctuaries, electric vehicles, or even entire green cities. This drop-in program is included with museum admission and offers the flexibility for families to participate at their own pace.

Join us this April to design a greener, more sustainable future at MODA’s Kids Create Saturdays!

Please note: Caregivers must accompany children at all times during this event.


During this Kids Create Saturdays, we’ll:

  • Build eco-friendly designs using LEGO bricks—solar homes, wind turbines, green cities, and more!

  • Encourage creative problem-solving through hands-on experimentation.

  • Inspire young designers to think critically about shapes, patterns, and details.

  • Provide a space where families can connect through play and design.

  • Practice collaboration, inclusivity, creative courage, imaginative problem-solving, and critical thinking 


Please note: Caregivers must accompany children at all times.

  • The Museum of Design Atlanta is conveniently located in the Midtown Arts District, right across the street from the Woodruff Arts Center at 1315 Peachtree St. NE Atlanta, GA 30309.
