Guggenheim Museum for sale, by Lego

The Guggenheim Museum is now available for purchase. You can get all 208 pieces for as little as $36 if you’re a member of the museum.

Oh, and we are talking Legos of course.

The LEGO Museum stands four inches tall and comes with a booklet with facts about the building, its construction and its history, according to the toy company.

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum this year is celebrating its 50th anniversary with an exhibition about its architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, through Aug. 23.

And on Oct. 21, admission at the museum will be free all day, marking 50 years to the day since the Guggenheim opened.
