The 11th annual design/build event Canstruction® is relocating to the Jacksonville International Airport for three high-volume weeks, from April 27-May 18.

 

 

Competing architectural firms will build their structures in the airport’s newly designed Connector Bridge April 27, 2012.  Each design will consist of non-perishable food items, which will be donated to Second Harvest. The structures will remain on display through May 18. Passersby have the opportunity to vote for “People’s Choice” award via online voting, with a panel of local judges also awarding honors for best meal, best use of labels, structural ingenuity and juror’s favorite.

Between 16,000 and 24,000 people a day will pass the structures during the three-week event. This year’s event is sponsored by the Jacksonville Chapter of the American Institute of Architects and the Society for Design Administration.
