The London Festival of Architecture will be starting this week, and the culmination of the festival will be tasty, indeed. As part of the festival, there's a competition to re-create famous architecture out of Jello (referred to as jelly across the pond).
According to the Guardian Online, the contest to re-create famous architecture is a charitable event and the proceeds go to Article 25, a disaster relief and development fund. Apparently the contest was inspired by the Millennium Bridge, which opened as a pedestrian bridge in 2000 in London but developed a dangerous wobble after only a week. It was nick named the "Wobbly Bridge," and had to be shut down to be fixed.
The architect who originally designed the "Wobbly Bridge" is actually making a Jello replication of it for this contest. He says that even though he was, of course, embarrassed about the flaws in the bridge, he is amused that his mistake can be used as the basis for a charitable event.

This sounds like a ton of fun to me. I wish I really could just take off to see it. Unfortunately, I have no money for traveling right now. However, I will be looking for more about the contest and its entries.
Thanks for the info, Shayna. :)
