The Second Annual Jell-O Mold Competition Approaches

The date is set for the second annual Gowanus Studio Space Jell-O Mold Competition: June 26th, 2010. In Brooklyn (duh). Based on the entries from last year, this is some serious business. Entry forms are due Friday, June 11th 2010 (Registration fees are $15 or $10 for students). Says the website: "This year's competition asks designers to explore the resilient properties of Jell-O as a design medium, a cultural phenomenon, and food that just won't quit... It wobbles onward, come what may. Jell-O springs eternal." Judges include Allan Chochinov of Core77, Becky Stern of MAKE and CRAFT, food-design strategist Elizabeth Jones, and designer Harry Allen, Thu Tran of Food Party will host. Hipsters!
