EMPTY BOWLS 2009
Empty Bowls is an international project that benefits food pantries around the world. Potters donate soup bowls that are available for purchase. People may purchase a bowl for a $10.00 donation and they will also receive a bowl of soup and bread representing a simple meal. The bowls are theirs to take home and are a reminder of the many empty bowls in our community. This year the Silver Creek Restaurant in Urbana will host the event which will take place in their beautiful greenhouse room. Their chef will provide the soup and bread. It will be on Tuesday, April 28th from 5 to 7 p.m.
Potters donating bowls this year include the Champaign-Urbana Potters Club, Parkland College students and professional potters, including Geoff Bant, Betsey Cronan, Susan Garner, Becky Johnson and Laura O'Donnell.
The Wesley Food Pantry, which serves Champaign county residents, will be this year's beneficiary of the fund raiser. Please join us and buy a beautiful bowl and help a very worthy cause while also enjoying a delicious bowl of soup. If you have any questions or suggestions please, call Susan Garner, coordinator, at 328-2397.
