Empty Bowls Fundraiser for the Montgomery County Food Bank

Empty Bowls at Ardest Gallery - Saturday, April 25th | 10AM – 4PM

Join us for a day of art, community, and compassion. In partnership with the Montgomery County Food Bank, our gallery will host a special Empty Bowls event featuring hand-crafted ceramic bowls created by local artists, artisans, and students — each available for a donation of $25, with 100% of proceeds benefiting the food bank. Select larger works will be featured at higher price points, also with all proceeds going directly to hunger relief.

Throughout the day, visitors can try their hand at a pinch-pot or glazing station led by ceramist Doni Langlois, and kids are invited to decorate their own bowl outdoors — a fun, hands-on reminder that your bowl helps feed a family. Raffle tickets will also be available at $5 each or 5 for $20 for a chance to take home a beautiful vessel and make an even bigger impact.

Unsold bowls will remain on display and available for purchase through the end of May, including during our Opening Reception — so there's more than one chance to find the perfect piece for a perfect cause.

Come for the art. Stay for the community. Leave knowing you made a difference.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
