LEGO champions a vast creative pool of established change-makers, having recently partnered with Pharrell Williams and Lando Noris to create their own buildable sets. For its next endeavor, LEGO highlights black creativity with Lauren London, Mookie Betts, and Pusha T across its new “Touch of Gold” initiative.

LEGO pays tribute to unstoppable black forces in creative spaces, showcasing world-class actors and artists with their families at home. The parents and children are one at home, capturing the pairings unleashing their creativity.

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder and shortstop player Mookie Betts constructs his own reality outdoors, building LEGO flowers alongside his wife and two children. ATL actress Lauren London invites her little ones into the playroom surrounded by LEGO bricks, playing with animals and spaceships together. Finally, Virginia rapper Pusha T takes his family into the studio, recording dynamic beats with toy headphones and convertible cars.

Take a closer look at LEGO’s “Touch of Gold” in the gallery above.
