For the Local LEGO Guy: Cody Wells & Little Shop of Crafts

Cody “The Lego Man” Wells is a self-proclaimed LEGO expert, and the sculptures he creates for exhibits and events back up that assertion and title. Wells leads parties in private residences, and runs classes at The Little Shop of Crafts on the Upper West side and his Astoria studio. To capture your child’s interests he doesn’t ask, “What do you want to build today?” but rather, “What are you into?” The goals of his hands-on, family-oriented learning experiences are to help all children spark their creativity, passion, and curiosity, one brick at a time.
