The Empty Bowls Project is back for the 2nd consecutive year. On Thursday, February 2nd Saline High School is hosting Empty Bowls from 5:30pm to 7:30pm.

Empty Bowls is an international project to fight hunger. A simple meal of soup and bread, prepared by the Saline Culinary Arts Program, is served in ceramic bowls, created by Saline students in 3rd thru 12th grade. Guests are asked to keep their bowl after their meal as a reminder that there are empty bowls across the world.

Tickets to Saline’s Empty Bowls event are $12 for individuals and $40 for a family. Proceeds from Empty Bowls will be donated to Food Gatherers, a nonprofit working to alleviate hunger and eliminate its causes in Washtenaw County. Last year, Saline Area Schools donated nearly $3,000 to Food Gatherers.

For more information about the Empty Bowls Project, or to purchase your tickets, visit their website.
