NAMS Empty Bowls

On April 20, 2017 the community will come together to serve and eat a simple meal in order to raise money for families in need within our community.

In an effort to raise awareness about the issues of hunger in and around our community, the middle school Art department has decided to participate in an international project called Empty Bowls. This project provides an opportunity to bring awareness to an issue throughout academic and artistic disciplines. Empty Bowls is a charitable concept that allows artists and groups to create and donate bo

wls, then serve a simple meal. Guests of the event choose a bowl to eat from and then keep as a reminder of all the empty bowls still left in the world. In exchange for the meal and bowl, guests contribute a suggested minimum donation. One hundred percent of each meal's proceeds will be donated to families in need within our district as well as a local organization that will reach families who live within our district but may not have school age children. The name for this program is used with permission from the Imagine Render group, a 501c3 non-profit organization. Their mission is to "create positive and lasting change through the arts, education, and projects that build community. Our major project is the Empty Bowls Project, an international grassroots effort to raise both money and awareness in the fight to end hunger. This project represents what we do best—develop creative, exciting, and powerful models that are replicable and scalable by others wishing to work for social justice."

If you were missing painting a bowl for Empty Bowls this year, this is your chance to paint a bowl, help the New Albany Food Pantry, & enjoy time with your neighbors!

Empty Bowls this Friday!
As part of the 20 Year Celebration and Summer Movie Series, we have partnered with the New Albany Food Pantry to host our final bowl painting night on July 26th during the movie night festivities. Bowls are just $10 each and proceeds are donated to combat hunger and raise awareness of the New Albany Food Pantry. Participants will receive a bowl, glaze and brushes to paint their masterpiece. Bowl pick-up will occur during a future New Albany Farmer's Market in August.
