There are a number of things you can do with cans of food but creating art is something most people don’t expect. That’s what makes Canstruction a unique art competition.
Every year in cities across North America people build wonderful creations with cans of food to attract the public’s attention to the serious problem of hunger. Some of them look like scary snakes or huge crocodiles or even dragons.
You don’t have to be an artist to take part but you do need to be patient. It can take up to twelve hours to make one of these fantastic works of art. People use cans of any size, shape and colour but they all have one thing in common; they are full of food ! After the competition is over, the organizers give the food to charities to feed the hungry.
So, if you are someone who likes a challenge, why don’t you try it ? You can even get your school involved. Collect some cans, build a work of art from them and then donate them to a charity to feed the hungry. One can of food can change the world.
