Empty Bowls Houston is presented by Whole Food Market and implemented locally by Houston-area ceramists and artists working in various media, Houston Center for Contemporary Craft and Houston Food Bank. Empty Bowls 2011 will be held at the Lawndale Art Center and Houston Center for Contemporary Craft on Saturday, March 19 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. For a minimum $25 donation, attendees receive a simple lunch of soup, bread and water, and then select a bowl from hundreds of one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted bowls donated by Houston-area artists. The empty bowls serve as a reminder of all the empty bowls in our community and the world. All proceeds will benefit the Houston Food Bank, fighting hunger in Houston. The event also features live music and live demonstration by a variety of artists throughout the day.
