It’s Fair Time! 🎡🌽🥫

Be sure to stop by the Hall County Fair Aurora Coop Pavilion and cast your vote for your favorite canned food sculpture!

Project Hunger is proud to sponsor the annual Canned Food Sculpture Contest, where local organizations turn ordinary cans into extraordinary creations. You won’t want to miss the creativity on display!

Best of all, every can makes a difference. Once the fair wraps up, all canned food will be donated to the Salvation Army Food Pantry, helping provide meals for families in our community.

Come enjoy the fair and vote for your favorite sculpture!

Will it be a farm animal? A fair favorite? A Nebraska landmark? Something completely unexpected? You'll have to stop by the Aurora Coop Pavillion during the fair to find out!

Even better, every can used in the sculptures will be donated to
