BrickFair lets builders sail away with their imagination.

OK, so “The Lego Movie” didn’t pick up an Oscar nomination today for Best Picture … or even for Best Animated Picture. (It did nab one for Best Song.)

What’s the consolation prize? BrickFair.

The annual Lego convention takes place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday in Birmingham. Exhibitors show off their creative side with cityscapes, ships, robots, churches and more.
