Event Details
Join Montgomery County Community College students and employees for an Empty Bowls fundraiser to support students.
Empty Bowls is an international, grassroots effort by artists, artisans, and makers to share their gifts and raise awareness about hunger and food insecurity.
The event will be held Thursday, Dec. 10 from 11:30-1 p.m. in the Hospitality Institute on the Blue Bell Campus, 340 DeKalb Pike, Blue Bell, PA 19422. The event is open to all and parking is free.
At Montco, the Fine Arts and Culinary and Baking and Pastry Arts departments are collaborating to provide bowls, soup, bread, dessert and a gathering space. The bowls are made by students, faculty, and staff in Montco’s Ceramics program. Soups, breads, and desserts are made by students and faculty in Culinary and Baking and Pastry Arts production classes.
Pre-register to purchase a bowl and dine in. Registration is $30.00 and includes a bowl (which participants will select on the day of the event), choice of soup (including vegetarian, gluten, and dairy free options), bread, dessert, and a beverage. Bowls and takeout soup will be available on the day of the event while supplies last.
Proceeds will support the Stock Up for Success food pantries at Montco and student and programming opportunities in Ceramics, Culinary, and Baking and Pastry Arts.
