Empty Bowls

This post will contain information about a program at my school called Empty Bowls.  The Empty Bowls program is where all of the Creative Arts students at HTHS make, glaze, and fire bowls for a HUGE pasta dinner for anyone who would like to come. All of the proceeds go to the Food Bank of New Jersey.  Helping with this project really made me feel great that I can help people in need.

There is a huge problem in America and that is hunger.  One in four children in America is living without consistent access to enough nutritious food to live a healthy life. Though my act is small, I am still making a difference. It reminds me of when, at my church, I helped make dinners for My Father's House.

I had a lot of fun learning to make the bowls and creating them. I'd have to say that the glazing was my favorite part.  Here are some of the bowls that we made.

I am super excited for the dinner and to help out. Below is a link for more info on Empty Bowls. Until next time!
