Block Builders Competition

Witham Library
Event Description
Are you a brilliant block builder? Show off your amazing designs and you might win a prize!
Submit your creations until 10am, then come back at 3.30pm for a prize ceremony and to collect your builds. Voting will be open to the public between 10am and 3pm.
Each build should be no more than 32x32 studs (one base plate) and you will fill out a submission sheet with a title and (optional) artist's statement explaining the meaning behind your creation.
You should include your name and age category (under 8, 8 to 12, 12+) on your submission sheet. One winner in each age category will win a prize.
You may bring your own block creations from home or create something at our Block Builders Construction Club (every Wednesday, 3.30pm to 4.45pm) but please do not mix and match. If you have made your design at Block Builders, you can fill in your submission sheet in the previous session.
