Canstruction 2011 Detroit Design/Build Competition & Exhibit
October 26-30, 2011
Detroit Institute of Arts
5200 Woodward Ave.
Detroit, MI 48202

The community is invited to the Great Hall at the Detroit Institute of Arts to explore the 2011 Detroit Canstruction® Design/Build exhibit.  View giant sculptures made completely of canned food highlighting the event's theme – "you can't spell food without the D." Thousands of cans of vegetables, soups and other canned goods will be transformed into works of art by teams of local architects, designers, engineers, contractors and students to help raise awareness about hunger issues while nourishing families in need. All cans used will be donated to Gleaners Community Food Bank. Exhibit open to the public during DIA hours of operation. Please visit www.dia.org for museum hours and admission cost.
