Canstruction: Art, design, architecture, engineering, construction, philanthropy.
It’s a great idea and a wonderful project.
We made our first foray for Fall Festival Reimagined 2011 with this fireplace. Made out of donated food cans it was built by a group consisting parents, faculty and students. It was dismantled last month and the food donated to the Queens Galley In Kingston.
But it looks like the bar in can construction was set long ago.
This tower of baked bean tins was at the Ideal Home Exhibition, London in March 1936.
Canstruction sounds like a great way for team work and collaboration. It’s probably a good way for students, parents and faculty to share ideas and have fun. The picture of the fireplace made out of cans is so cool. I really liked how they put fire in to.
