Come on...read it...it's for a good cause...plus, trying to guess what each piece of art is...is half the fun...OK...it's more difficult to tell what they are in person, you get lost in just seeing so many cans...I guess my photos sort of spell out what each of them are.

"Canstruction is the most unique food charity in the world.

A foundation of the Society for Design Administration (SDA), Canstruction is a design/build competition currently held in cities throughout North America. Teams of architects, engineers, and students mentored by these professionals, compete to design and build giant structures made entirely from full cans of food.


They display their creations then donate all the cans when they dismantle the art.



"Since its inception, ten million pounds of food has been donated to aid in the fight against hunger. Initiated by the Denver, Seattle and New York Chapters of the SDA in 1992/93, Canstruction now has over one hundred individual competitions scheduled to take place during the 2007-2008 cycle."



"Canstruction demonstrates that everyone CAN make a difference, one CAN at a time. The public is invited to bring canned foods to donate to City Harvest when viewing the exhibition."

Check HERE to see if it's in your city.
