Empty Bowls says,

“Thank you, Manhattan!”

You helped raise $2,300 to support local hunger fighting organizations. The recipients of the proceeds are: Second Helping, Happy Kitchen, and Ogden Friendship House who will receive $767.00 each.

The response to the Empty Bowls Event was fantastic and very much appreciated.!

What is Empty Bowls?

It is a national movement to help the hungry and nurture the arts. It was brought to our community by the K-State Women’s Center & the Campaign for Nonviolence.

Special thanks to

The KSU Art Department & Potter’s Guild,

GSOVA-Graduate Students of Visual Arts

Manhattan High School Ceramic Students, and

those citizens who participated in the Bowl-A-Thon at

Manhattan Arts Center and

the individuals who made bowls on their own time

for producing the bowls for the event to arise.

Also, many thanks to Bluestem Bistro and Edesia for displaying the bowls and donating 100% of the profit directly to Empty Bowls, and to Texas Star Café, Four Olives Wine Bar, and Edesia for their generosity

in providing the serving of the soup.

Join us next year!
