For a $15 donation, you can have a meal of soup, bread, and beverage provided by area, and see hundreds of beautiful handmade ceramic bowls. PLUS you get to pick out your favorite bowl to keep, and just by attending, you will help feed a family that otherwise would be facing an empty Bowl at meal time.
