They are dedicated to inspiring girls and women to build with LEGO. Women’s Brick Initiative – Alice Finch, Megan Lum, Jyoti Patel The Women’s Brick Collective wants to bring the focus of building and creating with LEGO back to women and girls. Kate Hunter- McBrien – (recently featured on the For the Love of the Brick podcast) There’s an absolute ton of female LEGO Creatives doing really exciting things on the platform, and if you’re looking to get inspired, here are a few that you should follow, if you’re doing so already. Same goes for Flickr, the ancestral home for showing off LEGO MOCs and designs. Whether it’s creativity expressed through MOCs, minifigure photography, or art, every day I discover some new Creator on Instagram. Instagram is a treasure trove of LEGO photography and a very joyful place to discover LEGO. I was also inspired to create this list by LEGO’s Future Builders campaign, which encourages those of you with daughters to re-create the iconic “What it is is beautiful” ad by submitting a photo of your daughter with their LEGO creations.Īs part of the campaign, LEGO have also featured Inspirational & Creative Women from within the company and from the wider community – I encourage you to read them! LEGO Instagrammers/Creatives/Flickr I encourage you to follow these talented individuals (if you’re not doing so already) and I hope you are as inspired as I was putting this list together!

So if you feel like I missed anyone (and I know I have), please feel free to drop your favourite female LEGO creators, designers and MOCers in the comments! This is far from an exhaustive list and I barely scratched the surface of female talent within the LEGO world, especially those without a digital presence, but I still wanted to use my platform and reach to highlight and celebrate the incredible talent of women within the LEGO Community.Ĭlick on the categories above to instantly jump to the individual sections. I challenged myself to put this list together, and with the help from some friends ( New Elementary, BrickHuntress, Rambling Brick, Four Bricks Tall and PotterMinifigPals), I arrived at 52 in total, loosely categorised into: It might surprise you, but 40% of my blog traffic are female!
On the surface, LEGO might look like it’s mostly dominated by men, and while they are still the majority, there are far more women involved in the hobby than ever before. I’m choosing to challenge the notion that LEGO is predominantly a “boys club”, and a few weeks ago, I started this project of curating and researching some of the most talented LEGO designers, Instagrammers, MOCers and Creatives in the world. We can all choose to seek out and celebrate women’s achievements. Collectively, we can all help create an inclusive world.įrom challenge comes change, so let’s all choose to challenge. We can all choose to challenge and call out gender bias and inequality. Here’s the description of this year’s theme. Today is International Women’s Day and the theme of this year is Choose to Challenge.
