Bricks & Brews
Join AIA East Tennessee for Bricks and Brews – a one-night-only pop-up Brick Bar! Drink, connect, and play with LEGOs in a fun, no-pressure atmosphere at XUL Beer Company, one of Knoxville’s premier local breweries. For those who like a little competition, LEGO builds can be entered for judging in one of several fun categories. XUL is within walking, scooter, or ride-share distance of the convention, just past the Old City.
Tickets are $15, including two delicious drinks from XUL Beer Company (non-alcoholic drinks are available) and the chance to play with Legos! All proceeds will support AIA East Tennessee’s mission and programming.
If you want to attend for free, please bring a set of NEW Legos to the event. All Lego sets will be donated directly to East Tennessee’s Children’s Hospital.
