Tempe Empty Bowls

Tempe Empty Bowls is a great way for people to help the needy in our community.

Tempe Empty BowlsThousands of Tempe-area elementary and high school area students, as well as local artists, create clay bowls and other pottery to help raise money for the hungry in our community as part of the Tempe Empty Bowls program. Proceeds benefit the feeding programs at the Tempe Community Action Agency and the United Food Bank.

At the event, $20 purchases a bowl and a simple meal of soup and bread, symbolic of the caloric intake that must sustain people in our community for an entire day.

The next Tempe Empty Bowls events will be held February 24th, 2024 from 10am – 2:00pm

On February 24th they will set up at the Tempe Public Library located at Rural and Southern.

Come enjoy the great weather, tour the Tempe Arts ceramic center, and listen to local entertainment while shopping for your handmade bowls. All proceeds will benefit Tempe Community Action Agency and United Food Bank.”
