Lauritzen Garden is also known as the Omaha Botanical Garden. Of course Lauritzen Garden is a horticultural extravaganza where a visitor could easily spend a good portion of a pleasant day walking through the bountiful garden display. Academy Science explores horticulture every chance we get. Academy Science also explores Lego art and science with plastic pieces and NXT Mindstorms. I think you can see what is coming… Lauritzen Garden has a display that has twenty seven sculptures built from about one half million Lego bricks! This is more exciting than a child in a candy store, make that metaphor a candy factory! Academy Science will be visiting Lauritzen Garden and participating in the Lego Sculpture Invitational!
