'Empty Bowls' event raises awareness, funds to feed Utah's hungry
Talk about food for thought.
Utahns broke bread, slurped soup and developed a greater appreciation of art and the issue of hunger in Utah during the Empty Bowls event Saturday afternoon at St. Vincent de Paul Dining Hall.
The event is a partnership between Clay Arts Utah and Catholic Community Services of Utah. After enjoying a simple meal, participants were invited to purchase ceramic bowls handcrafted by Utah artisans.
Proceeds benefitted CCS's dining hall, which serves lunch and dinner Monday through Saturday and Sunday dinner to help alleviate hunger in the Salt Lake area.
