As part of Calgary Expo 2014, Brickwares was invited to build 3 pieces on site, with the help of the attendees. This was such a great event, we had a blast building and creating the mosaics. One of the three was a mosaic of Sam Gamgee from Lord of the Rings. Sean Astin (who played Sam in the films) was a guest at Expo, and graciously agreed to sign the piece, which was later auctioned off, with the proceeds going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
