Inspired by his life-long love of building, and especially Legos, Arlington Heights resident Adam Reed Tucker recently opened the Blocks to Bricks museum and studio, which highlights the history of toys used for building, and Tucker’s personal history with Lego.

The museum, located in Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, opened Friday, June 15, and features music and a film created by Highland Park resident and composer Peter Spero.

“I’ve created music that reflects the space,” Peter said.
