A.J. Klingenmaier, who graduated from NC State in 2008 with a degree in Art and Design, has recreated the Memorial Belltower with LEGOs next to a town -- a several year project. BrickUniverse is a LEGO convention that tours across the country, attracting fans of all ages. BrickUniverse was held in the Raleigh Convention Center on South Salisbury Street from 10am-4pm on April 2-3, 2016.

The LEGO BrickUniverse convention returned to Raleigh, hosted in the Raleigh Convention Center on April 2 and 3, 2016. The convention drew fans young and old, all of which were able to play with LEGOs together. Activities ranged from challenge areas to guest speakers to LEGO based art and was a big enough hit to sell out both days.
