The Art of the Brick
This project consisted of visiting Nathan Sawaya's art exhibit in Cincinnati. Following the field trip, students wrote about a piece that inspired them. Next, they used LEGO Digital Designer to create an original LEGO piece inspired by what they saw. These were printed and used as templates for creating a physical piece made from LEGOs. These projects and an interactive, community piece were displayed in the Middle School Art Exhibit.
