Empty Bowls is an international project to fight hunger. The basic idea for Empty Bowls is simple; serve a simple meal of soup and bread. Guests choose a bowl to keep as a reminder that there are always empty bowls in the world.

It’s the most festive soup line imaginable, and all proceeds go to the Falls Area Food Pantry.  Tickets will be available the night of the event at the café entrance.  Questions can be directed to, Terra Chmielewski at 262-946-2046 or chmiter@sdmfschools.org.
