Empty Bowls

Empty Bowls is an annual event led by the Roti Roti Art Center, bringing together art and community to support local hunger relief. Guests purchase handmade ceramic bowls created by local artists and students and enjoy a simple carry-out soup supper, with proceeds benefiting the Redbud Area Ministries food pantry. Inspired by a worldwide movement started over 35 years ago by art educators, this event raises awareness of food insecurity while celebrating the power of art in giving back.

This is an annual event held in the Buchanan High School Auxiliary Gym.
