You Can Be a Part of the Build

Being around LEGO always makes me want to dig my hands into a pile of bricks and get to building.

The good news is that early visitors to the exhibit this weekend will get to do just that.

Texas LEGO Users Group is looking to build a 10'x10' mural containing 75,000 LEGO bricks. The first 144 people in attendance this weekend will be invited to build a portion of the mural. You'll be given enough bricks for your part of the task, along with detailed instructions.

Building for a Cause

Here's what makes this event even better: Texas Lego Users Group is partnering with Fairy Bricks to help supply LEGO sets to hospitalized children, including patients at McLane’s Children's Hospital in Temple.
