Canstruction 2015
The annual Canstruction exhibit opened this week at the State Museum. It'll be on display through April 16.
The exhibit is a fundraiser for The Food Pantries for The Capital District. Teams of architects, designers, and students build structures almost entirely out of canned goods. And then visitors can favor on their favorites by dropping canned goods into bins by each structure. All the food ends up being donated to the Food Pantries.
The structures are fun to see. And this year's exhibit -- the theme is "heroes" -- is no exception.
A bunch of photos are after the jump. But if you have a chance to stop by in person over the next few weeks, it's worth it to see how they're constructed (and you can make a donation).
Photos are in large format above -- click or scroll all the way up.
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

Thanks for posting this. I went with my son this past weekend. He really enjoyed the cans!
