Empty Bowls at Clay Art Center 2015
Empty Bowls and the Clay Art Center work together to bring an end to food insecurity. Fundraising event at Rye Presbyterian Church Jan. 25.
Clay Art Center celebrates its community service and outreach month by hosting its 14th year of the Empty Bowls event and fundraiser. Empty Bowls is a national organization raising awareness about issues of hunger and food insecurity.
This year we invite you to Clay Art Center on January 3, from 1-4:00 pm to share your generosity by helping us make bowls for the event. Clay Art Center staff, artists, students and volunteers will be creating one of a kind bowls of all shapes and sizes on and off the potter’s wheel, and each bowl made on site will be donated to the Fundraiser.
Local community members are invited to participate by creating hand-built bowls with the help of a Clay art Center artist. Want to keep your masterpiece? Bowls will be fired for $10, all proceeds will be donated to the Interfaith Soup Kitchens of Port Chester. If you can’t throw or donate a bowl consider joining us during the fundraising event held on Sunday, January 25th at 11am at Rye Presbyterian Church, located at 882 Boston Post Road in Rye, NY. With each bowl purchased a local Port Chester bakery will donate their delicious and unique soups and breads. All proceeds from Empty Bowls will be donated to local soup kitchens.
