Empty Bowls Houston invites you and your family to the
17th Annual Empty Bowls Houston 
at the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft on May 20!

.
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 hundreds of one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted bowls donated by Houston area ceramists and craft artists, then receive a simple lunch of to-go soup prepared by the Houston Food Bank’s 535 Catering. Pottery and woodturning demonstrations and live music will be featured at the event.
