Press Release:

Fort Worth Chapters of the Society for Design Administration (SDA) and The American Institute of Architects (AIA) join forces to present the 12th annual Canstruction event in Tarrant County.
Competition and Exhibition spotlights hunger and the Tarrant County design community with gigantic, imaginative structures built by teams of architects and engineers using cans of food.
The structures will be on display the week of October 10th - 17th, 2010. The public can donate $1.00 per vote for the People's Choice Award, all donations benefit the Tarrant Area Food Bank.

of food to the Tarrant Area Food Bank.
