Canstruction Recap
Canstruction is an annual design and building competition amongst
Architects and Engineers to construct fantastic, giant sized,
structures made entirely out of canned food, to benefit the
North Texas Food Bank. Canstruction 2017 took place from
September 10-23 at NorthPark Center and provided 145,161 meals
for hungry North Texans. This year’s theme was inspired by Jan
Pruitt’s favorite quote, "Be the change you wish to see in the world."
