Brickmaniacs,

As the world continues to deal with the COVID-19 outbreak, we must all continue to be vigilant to protect our families, coworkers and communities. Although the stay-at-home order has been lifted in Minnesota, Brickmania has continued to practice the principles of social distancing. Master builders know how important it is to maintain consistency and this is no different.

The amazing local volunteer who made washable masks from leftover pieces of the World War Brick Quilt has come through yet again, making washable masks for our whole team. She has been contributing to her entire community by giving away over 1,200 masks all over Minneapolis. Now each of our employees has a mask of their own from her hand. We couldn’t be more appreciative of her hard work and dedication.

Brickmania is still a small company, but we’re one big family, even across three states. Our stores used to have monthly gatherings like MOC Mondays and Micro Brick Battle Game Nights. Our warehouse team was used to being able to eat together and play tabletop games after work. Although it is sometimes uncomfortable, or difficult to remember, wearing these masks helps protect the people we care about. It’s difficult to be away from each other, and sometimes it’s hard to hear through the masks, but we continue to do what we must to fight COVID-19.

Another way that we’ve been able to fight COVID-19 is through the proceeds of the Brickmania Coloring Book (both printed and PDF versions available). We’ve already raised over a thousand dollars and we can raise more with your help. We’re all in this together, and we fight this virus one mask and one Coloring Book at a time. Thank you for your continued support. Stay safe, stay healthy.
