Columbus: Empty Bowls

In this project, participants create ceramic bowls then serve a simple meal of soup and bread. Guests choose a bowl to use that day and to keep as a reminder that there are always "empty bowls" in the world. In exchange for a meal and the bowl, the guest gives a suggested minimum donation of ten dollars. The meal sponsors and /or guests choose a hunger-fighting organization to receive the money collected. This is the Columbus, Ohio, Empty Bowls; they are available internationally.
