In 1999, Lori Kanary became a Guinness World Record holder when she created Giant Lite-Brite, otherwise known as "If Claude Monet Grew up with Lite-Brite." Giant Lite-Brite was orignally part of Denver's city wide celebration of the Denver Art Museum's European Impressionism exhibit. As seen from a child's view of the world, Lori's larger than life version of the toy inspired a brand new Guinness World Record, utilizing 62,856 actual toy Lite-Brite pegs. The image “Impression Sunrise” by Claude Monet, tied into the citywide Impressionism theme. The Denver Art Museum contacted Guinness World Records, and the rest is history. Giant Lite-Brite is now on permanent display at the
Hollywood Guinness World Record Museum, Los Angeles,Ca.
