Empty Bowls Auctions

[robo hippy]

Our local Empty Bowls Auction is coming up in May. These are held across the country to benefit the local Food Banks. While this has been mostly the pottery bowls, they welcome our wood bowls. If you can, have a bowl turning demo, and have that be the challenge project for the next month. A very worthy cause, and a chance to give back to the community.

Spent 3 days turning for them one time. It was fun. I didn't produce nearly as many bowls as the potters but we all had fun. A very worthwhile cause.

Ours (Dallas) is next month. You pay $20 to get in, eat a bunch of soup, get a bowl from a glass, ceramic or wood maker and the money here goes to the North Texas Food Bank.

Good Cause !

We also do it here in Troy, NY. My wife is a potter and her Guild organizes the event. We have donated and volunteered every year so far.

Thanks for the shout-out Robo !

The Tarrant County event (Fort Worth) will be on February 19 and the cost is $35. Tickets must be purchased in advance. I turned a few, but not as many bowls as I had wanted to make.
