CANSTRUCTION 2002 Promotional Structure Helps Kick Off 3rd Annual Design/Build Competition

Competing Structures will be on Display Nov. 6th through the 14th at Saint Louis Galleria

WHAT:Wash U. architecture students create a "Harvest for the Hungry" at Saint Louis Galleria.
Students from the Washington University School of Architecture - all members of the American Institute of Architecture Students (AIAS) - built a 5' x 10' "Harvest for the Hungry" structure made entirely out of canned goods at Saint Louis Galleria's Atrium Dining Court.  The canned goods used for this structure were donated by Schnuck Markets, Inc. and will be distributed to those in need by the St. Louis Area Foodbank and the Jewish Food Pantry.
WHY:
To help kick off the upcoming CANSTRUCTION competition scheduled for November 6th - 14th at Saint Louis Galleria which will be benefiting the St. Louis Area Foodbank and the Jewish Food Pantry.
