Micropolis display

Jennifer Heaton and Nathan Stohlmann presented their Micropolis modules to an appreciative audience at a library on Saturday, March 2. We didn't try to get a head count, but there was a steady stream of visitors throughout the afternoon.



Here's a bit closer view.

March Madness: Midwest Micro events

On Saturday, March 2, Jennifer Heaton and Nathan Stohlmann will display their collection of Micropolis modules from 2:00-4:00 p.m. at the St. Anthony Park Library, in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The event is not on the library's online calendar. If you need more info, leave a comment below. (Shown below is a smaller display of their work, previously featured on MicroBricks.)



What would you do with 60,000 bricks? Two Iowa guys have designed a scale model of the Science Center of Iowa, and you are invited to help construct the model. Building takes place March 16 and 17 at the Science Center of Iowa. (Shown below is a nano-scale model of the Science Center, which will be available for purchase at the center's gift store.)

Micropolis at family building event

TwinLUG members Nathan and Jennifer set up a Micropolis display for a family LEGO building event last weekend. That's Gary's maze in the lower left.

The event was held at Leonardo's Basement, which runs science, art, and technology programs for youth and adults in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Minnesota.

Photos of the kids' projects can be seen here.



Wish I had taken more photos.

Micropolis at KidsFest

Micropolis delighted fans of all ages at the LEGO KidsFest in Minneapolis over the weekend.

There were a few new additions, including a nuclear sub in the crowded sea port. The drive-in theater got an impressive upgrade during the show.

Those attending the BrickMagic convention in North Carolina May 7-8 will receive a Siskind/Meno exclusive kit, the P-38 Lighting Mini-Kit. Kits will also be on sale during the public exhibition while supplies last.

Brick Bash was a public expo held this past Saturday in Michigan. Among the many works on display were many MOCs by micro architects Spencer Rezkalla and Arthur Gugick. Photo credits to DecoJim.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day

Jojo made Dublin's Saint Patrick's Cathedral as part of the Euromap landmarks project.

We Rule

Legopalooza was a show organized by NCLUG last week. I can't read the tags, but I'm guessing this huge display based on the game We Rule is a collaborative effort. Now someone has to build a similar display based on Trade Nations - the iPhone game that I'm addicted to.
-Edit- Thanks to the comments below, I've been told that this was all by one builder, Sabrina Gravatt.
