You are invited on Sunday, April 21 to Empty Bowls 2013, an exciting and fun-filled event in support of Family Promise of San Gabriel Valley.

For $30, you will be able to purchase a beautifully handcrafted soup bowl made by local artisans and then enjoy a delicious soup donated by local restaurateurs.

All proceeds will go to Family Promise, a nonprofit 501c3 organization that brings local faith congregations together to shelter and feed homeless families, provide them social support, and help them find employment and housing. As a participant, you will be able to take your soup bowl home as a reminder that some people have an empty bowl not by choice, but by unfortunate circumstances.

Empty Bowls also feature local musicans performing and drawings for beautifully themed gift baskets. Local artisans will offer pottery and other wares for sale at an artists village. 

Our thanks to the following artists whose donations made this event possible:

Advocate Donors (1-49 bowls): Ramona Convent Secondary School * Robert Maxwell * Jeanne Lavieri * East Los Angeles College * Azusa Pacific University * Pasadena City College * Ellen Wohlstadter
