Additional Idaho Foodbank Causes
Pocatello Empty Bowls
Pocatello Arts Council
Empty Bowls is grass roots movement by local artists to help end hunger in their
own communities. The idea is very simple. In cooperation with the Pocatello
Arts Council, ISU Clay Club and the Idaho Food Bank, local ceramic artists will
create bowls for the event, while local restaurants and grocers donate soup and
bread for a simple dinner. Tickets to the event are a $20. donation. Each donor
will choose their own handmade bowl and enjoy a variety of soups and bread.
Live music and a cash bar will round out the event. All proceeds support the
Idaho Food Bank to help end hunger here in our local community.
This will be our third empty bowls event here in Pocatello, and we are looking
forward to our most successful event to date. This year local ceramic artists will
make 200 bowls, and local musicians will provide a live performance for the
event.
