“Louis Armstrong’s station in the history of jazz is unimpeachable. If it weren’t for him, there wouldn’t be any of us.”- Dizzy Gillespie Maze-goers were Maestros as they played jazz standards and more on our musical fences. Music, from our ears to yours!

It also gave us an excuse for building a tomb and sarcophagus encasing Mike’s mummy. Swept away by Egyptomania we erected a 1/20th scale model of the great pyramid of Khufu made with over … Read more

Before there was The Da Vinci Code there was our Mona Maze. Leonardo’s subtle beauty is arguably the best known masterpiece in the world. It’s been copied, praised, and parodied for centuries.
