Empty Bowls Houston invites you and your family to the 18th Annual Empty Bowls HoustonĀ at Houston Center for Contemporary Craft on Saturday, May 11th!
Empty Bowls is a grassroots effort by artists and craftspeople in cities and towns across the country to feed the hungry in their communities. Empty Bowls Houston is implemented locally by Houston-area ceramists and artists working in various media, the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft and the Houston Food Bank.
For a minimum $25 donation, attendees have the pleasure of selecting a bowl from thousands of one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted made and donated bowls donated by Houston area ceramists and craft artists, then receive a simple lunch. The empty bowls serve as a reminder of all the empty bowls in our community and around the world.
Pottery and woodturning demonstrations and live music will be featured at the event.
