Our creation for this year's @CanstructionBOS was "Zooming in to Fight Hunger". With great power comes great responsibility... It’s a Marvel(ous)thing to see everyone come together for the greater good! Cast your vote by "liking" our design: facebook.com/CanstructionBos… @Canstruction
ALT As we look back on 2020, the way we entertain ourselves has dramatically changed. Family and friend gatherings, office meetings, and even playing games or watching movies are now frequently hosted via Zoom! By pairing this new form of entertainment with Stan Lee’s classic comic books and superheroes (that have been entertaining people since 1961), we celebrate the old while embracing the new!

Non-profits! We know cash always helps the most but what types of food and other items do you need the most right now?
Did your firm/organization still donate despite a cancelled or postponed Canstruction event? Let us know so we can shout you out!

Join the @nysmuseum today on a virtual field trip of this year's Canstruction display. Canstruction is an annual design competition where participants build structures out of canned food items, which are then donated. facebook.com/events/27912531…
