kids looking at project made of cans

Canstruction®, a foundation of the Society for Design Administration (SDA), is a unique food charity. A design/build competition is 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. The results are displayed to the public as magnificent sculpture exhibits in each city where a competition is held. At the close of the exhibitions all of the canned food used in the structures is donated to local food banks for distribution to emergency feeding programs that include pantries, soup kitchens, elderly and day care centers.

Amy Barrett, Anthony Battistini, Jamie Farris. Jeremiah Fasl, Katy Gustashaw, Todd Hutchison, Steven Pool, Jason Stith and Ali Yousef participated in the SDA Central Texas Chapter first annual Austin CANstruction event in November by designing the CW Austin promotional structure.
