Additional Idaho Foodbank Causes
Empty Bowls - Pocatello
Pocatello Arts Council
Come support The Idaho Foodbank at this year's Empty Bowls event in Pocatello put on by the Pocatello Arts Council! All proceeds from the event will go towards fighting hunger in our local communities here in East Idaho.
On Friday, March 8th from 6-8pm, all are welcome to come join us at Westside Players at 1009 S 2nd Ave in Pocatello to enjoy an evening of great food, great music, a silent auction, and more! For a $25 donation at the door, you'll get your pick of any single handmade ceramic bowl made by our very own Clay Club here at ISU - the bowl selections are first come, first served so make sure you get there early if you want to have the largest variety to pick from! Along with your bowl, you'll get free soup, bread, treats, and soda courtesy of Albertsons, Sand Trap, Butterburr's, and Fixxology, respectively.
There will also be a selection of food/drinks provided by some other fantastic local businesses such as Jim Dandy's, Off the Rails, Glean Coffee, The College Market, and The Grapevine, along with live music from the Reese Thompson Trio.
This year's event is presented by Lookout Credit Union - a long-time supporter and partner of the Idaho Foodbank - and you definitely won't want to miss it! Hope to see you there!
