Dream it! Build it!

Dream it! Build it! Opening Late Spring

The Dream it! Build it! exhibit will empower children and the adults in their lives to dream up, design, and build things that make our world a better place.

In this space you can:

  • Dream big about the future of their cities and communities.
  • Design creative solutions by experimenting with ideas, materials, light, and space.
  • Build hands-on projects with real tools, real collaboration, and real joy.

Everything in Dream it! Build it! is hands-on, minds-on, and designed to help children and families try out construction, architecture, and engineering challenges. A few parts of the exhibit are highlighted below:

  • The Big Build: Climb scaffolding, move materials, and try out a building trade to construct a large-scale structure together.
  • Dream City: Imagine, sketch, and add your ideas to a collaborative digital city.
  • Design Studio: Play with light, color, and materials to create spaces for yourself and others.
  • Green Spaces: Explore sustainable design by integrating nature into communities.
  • Portraits of Workers: Meet real people who shape the built environment, highlighting diverse pathways and identities.
