Noah Lonzanida, a 7-year old from Norfolk, Virginia stands next to a completed LEGO ship model of CSS Virginia that he constructed during the Brick by Brick: LEGO Shipbuilding event hosted by the Hampton Roads Naval Museum. The event was held on Saturday, February 4, 2023 at the Decker Half Moone Cruise and Celebration Center in Downtown Norfolk, Virginia. The event attracted a crowd of over 3,500 visitors who had the opportunity to create ship models with LEGO bricks, enjoy robotics demonstrations, enter LEGO shipmodel contests, enjoy crafts and free play areas and become immersed in STEM and naval history during the daylong event. The event is an annual event hosted by the museum, who partnered with The Navy League of the United States-Hampton Roads Chapter, the American Society of Naval Engineers-Tidewater Section, the First Lego League, Hampton Roads LEGO User Group, and the Naval History and Heritage Command, among others. Over 75 active duty Sailors assigned to various commands in the Hampton Roads, Virginia also volunteered during the event for a unique community relations experience.
