THE GRAVY BEAM

In a galaxy not so far away... a curious cow finds itself caught mid-snack and mid-air in the

shimmering beam of an alien spaceship — made entirely out of cans!

This whimsical sci-fi scene puts a fun twist on the classic UFO abduction story with a dash of udderly absurd humor. From the hovering saucer to the bewildered bovine, every detail of this interstellar incident is crafted with canned goods and a lot of imagination.

Who knew the aliens were here to fight hunger — one can at a time?

CANstruction Dallas, an annual design and build event of giant canned food structures benefitting the North Texas Food Bank, begins Saturday, August 30, 2025, and runs through Sunday, September 14, 2025, at NorthPark Center.
