Are you or your child interested in showing off their amazing LEGO® creations to others? Maybe you’d like to, but not sure where to get started? Feel free to swing by our monthly meetings as Bricks & Minifigs of Crest Hill hosts UniLUG – Illinois’ only all-ages LUG group.
You may ask yourself.. what is a LUG?
LUG is shorthand for LEGO User Group
What is the point to join a LUG?
The main reason to join a LUG is to be able to learn from others, collaborate on new creations, and explore creativity through LEGO bricks
Is there a cost to join?
Yes. Due to many LUGs, including ours.. we do have costs for marketing, other print materials, and hosting of our discord and upcoming website. The cost to join is $20 for the first member, and $10 for each additional family member that joins. Any person under the age of 18 MUST have a parent join with them.
When and where does this group meet?
Typically, our monthly meetings are held at Bricks & Minifigs in Crest Hill, IL on the SECOND Saturday of each month. However, some of our events coincide with our meeting dates, so those meetings are held (if at all) at that location.
