WHAT?
Canstruction Boston is an annual event during which Architects, Engineers, Contractors, Designers, and Students create giant sculptures of canned goods
to be donated to those in need. The designs are voted upon for various awards and put on display at the Boston Society of Architects. Afterwards all cans are donated to the Merrimack Valley Food Bank. Over the years, 882,000 pounds of food has been collected.

With 140 cities world-wide holding design/build competitions, Canstruction has donated over 20 million pounds of canned food to alleviate the scourge of hunger and malnutrition.
