The Brick Fan Event took over the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa, featuring hundreds of intricate LEGO builds and custom creations from fans nationwide.
LEGO Masters Winners and Contestants Attend
Mark Erickson, the winner of ‘LEGO Masters’ Season 2, highlighted the creative freedom of the hobby, saying, ‘If you like Lego at all, if you like art at all and talk to some fun, cool people, it’s a great time.’ Former ‘LEGO Masters’ contestant Corey Samuels shared how his experience on the show inspired him to teach younger generations about the joy of building with LEGO.
Adult fans, such as Niki Loheit, 52, are also proving that anyone can pick up the hobby at any age. Loheit started building at age 47 while helping her homeschooled children and now shares her passion with others through her work with Brick Fan Events.
