Bricks of Olympus Exhibition 

Step into Bricks of Olympus at the UC Teece Museum, an awe-inspiring LEGO® exhibition created by Jake Roos and Emily Fryer, winner and runner-up of LEGO® Masters New Zealand, Season One.

This brick-shaped tribute to the gods features an automated LEGO® theatre retelling the epic journey of Odysseus complete with monsters, shipwrecks, and mythical mayhem.

Explore the mechanics of LEGO® with our minifigure legions in motion around the gallery. Watch how ancient engineering meets modern creativity through levers, pulleys, wheels, wedges, and inclined planes all in action!

See centaurs transport a tombstone and warriors lift a giant amphora using simple machines.
