Empty Bowls

Events planned to help hungry

The Adrian Art department will sponsor three Empty Bowls events in January and February to benefit the Salvation Army Soup Kitchen.

The handmade bowls can be purchased on site at the events, filled with soup and later taken home.

Adrian College art students, teaching assistants, alumni and staff, Community Clay students, and the Adrian College Youth Art Program have all been making bowls with the goal of 500 bowls to be offered for a donation of $10-$20.
