We hope to see you there!

EVERYTHING IS AWESOME! Calling all LEGO fans – we’re excited to be featured at the LEGO Train Weekend at the Wenham Museum this weekend!
Come see rainbow colored, L-gauge model trains speeding along a brick track as it races by soaring skyscrapers, country cottages, the king's castle and much more. The LEGO Train display is designed with the highest degree of precision (and a sense of humor!) by the New England LEGO Users Group (NELUG). Advanced Tickets are available. Tickets may also be purchased at the door. Museum hours are 10am-4pm Saturday and 12pm-4pm Sunday. Feel free to stop by any time to say hi and see our latest display!
Several NELUG members will be displaying their incredible LEGO creations at Brick Convention this coming Saturday and Sunday (August 19 and 20, 2023) at the MassMutual Convention Center in Springfield, MA. Tickets for the event are available on the Brick Convention website. Come see all of the amazing displays from a number of NELUG and area builders on display and interact with the builders to learn all of their building secrets.
Special guest and NELUG member Liz Puleo (LEGO Masters Season 3) will also be there, so make sure to stop by and say hi!
NELUG: COVID and Beyond!
We wanted to give you an update as to what is happening with NELUG, how we meet and other things in these strange times we live in.
You can still join us! Simply sign-up using the button, and you can have a FREE month of membership. After that, it's just $24 / year (pro-rated). Come on and check us out.
So ... here is an update.
In normal times (the "before-times"), we would:
| Once a month | Meet at one of the four LEGO stores in MA and then go to a local restaurant | |
| Every few months | We would exhibit at a show, or put on a show | |
| Annually | Meet up for 2x4 day to celebrate all things LEGO | |
| Anytime | Chat on the forums, available to anyone who signs up to the club |
With the pandemic, we are being COVID-aware and conforming to the various New England states' social distancing mandates and also taking all sensible precautions. Therefore, this is what we are doing right now:
| Once a week | Meet via Zoom. These are very fun-filled meetings, where we can showcase things we've built, chit-chat and generally 'meet' in a safe way. Generally lasts about two hours, but you can come & go as you please. | |
| Anytime | Chat on the forums, available to anyone who signs up to the club |
We are very much looking forward to getting back to some semblance of normality - meeting in person, attending shows and generally being able to enjoy LEGO life together. Until then, we are open for business!
The images you see were from our recent Describe 2020 in a mosaic competition ... enjoy!
If YOU want a chance to showcase your originality and talent - come on down!
This is a Zoom call entitled "Where's Dave W?"
We truly have enjoyed putting on the Wenham show for the last nine years so we decided we wanted to try something extra special for our tenth year. But we'll be honest, it isn't without its challenges!
So what is it? Well, first imagine construction equipment, especially the large earth-moving type. Second, imagine robots that can understand something about their environment and interact with each other. Lastly, imagine everything being created out of LEGO. Now put these all together and you'll be in the right ball park!
Like we said, this isn't without its challenges, so come see how we do!
The show is on February 16 & 17 from 10:00am to 4:00pm in Wenham, Massachusetts. We look forward to seeing you!
