Tate, West Florida Join Architectural Firms For CANstruction For Manna
October 20, 2013
Two local high schools joined seven architectural firms for CANstruction 2013 Friday night at the Artel Gallery in downtown Pensacola.
Tate and West Florida high schools presented their designs — constructed of cans of food — alongside creations by members of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) of Northwest Florida. The thousands of cans of food were all donated to Manna Food Pantries.

This is multidisciplinary teaching at its best by mixing art with social studies. When art, gym/recess, and even social studies are slowly phased out of our school’s curriculum (teaching to the test), this will be the only way to integrate these subjects.
I applaud these teachers.
