Schneider Museum of Art
The Empty Bowls Project
Each year in the spring, Soroptomist International of Ashland, the Southern Oregon University Department of Art, and the Schneider Museum of Art present the Empty Bowls Pottery Sale.
Mark your calendars for Friday, April 4, 2008 from 5:00 to 7:00 pm!
The Empty Bowls Project is held annually on the Southern Oregon University campus. Each day hunger affects hundreds of individuals in the Rogue Valley. In an annual effort to assist with hunger relief, this symbolic sale of ceramic bowls are offered to the community for purchase, with all proceeds going to benefit the Access Food Share Network, Ashland Emergency Food Bank, and Interfaith Care Community of Ashland. The bowls are made and donated by members of the regional pottery association, Clayfolk and also students from Southern Oregon University. This year, these bowls will be sold at the First Friday event on April 4, 2008 from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. The Thorndike Gallery is located in the Art Building adjacent to the Museum.
