SMPS Charlotte has teamed with AIA Charlotte to host Gingerbuild!, a gingerbread design/build/decorate competition to kick off a Holiday Social! Architects, designers, engineers, contractors, students...anyone is invited to form a team. Get creative; show your delicious talents in a new medium.
In the hours before the Social starts at 5:00 pm, the icing will be flying as teams build and decorate a structure of their choice (
see full competition rules). Entries will be judged on site by an esteemed jury of AEC professionals in the categories of Best Structure and Best Curb Appeal. Social attendees will also cast their votes to determine the People's Choice. At the end of the evening, the structures will be donated to a local children's charity. Team registration is free with a ticket to the Social.
Follow the steps below to join the fun:
- If you are an AIA member or sponsor, email us for a coupon code.
- Buy each team member a ticket to the social on the SMPS website.
