RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- The award-winning Art of the Brick exhibit at Pleasant Valley Promenade in Raleigh has more than 1 million Legos crafted into 90 sculptures, and it has been so popular, it received an extension through the holidays.

The exhibit will remain in Raleigh through January 6th.

Since the exhibit will now be up through the holidays, a new festive Lego sculpture "The Twelve Days of Christmas" has been added paying tribute to the timeless holiday song.
