What Is Empty Bowls?

Empty Bowls is an international grass roots effort to fight hunger.
The basic premise: potters and other artists create handcrafted bowls. Guests arrive for a simple soup meal and choose a unique bowl which they keep as a symbol and reminder of all the empty bowls in the world.

The goal is twofold: to raise awareness of the fight against hunger and to raise funds to support local food banks. Wherever Empty Bowl events occur, the money raised helps to feed those in need in that community.
We hope to make this an annual event for as long as there is a need.

Students, Faculty and guest artists create bowls to be used in Enumclaw's March 2012 Empty Bowls Event.
Though the bowls are made individually, there is a great community spirit behind their creation.
The goal for this event is 300+ bowls.
