Empty Bowls 2007 – By the Tarrant Area Food Bank Continued from my post on February 16. I received my thank you letter from the organization over the weekend and wanted to share the update with you. It truly was a great experience and plan to continue donating my pieces and my time to this charity.

The background of Empty Bowls was born in 1990 when a high school art teacher in Michigan was helping his ceramics students find a way to support a food drive. Since then, this special event has spread around the globe.

• This was the 8th year for the Empty Bowls event in Fort Worth
• Raised a total of $70,000
• There were over 160 volunteers, who helped plan, produce & present Empty Bowls
