Stone Church of the Brethren in Huntingdon, Pa., on April 13 hosted an “Empty Bowls”
dinner featuring hundreds of bowls created by the Juniata College art
department. The dinner raised money for various Huntingdon County food
banks. According to a release from the college, participants got “not
only soup and bread, but also a hand-made ceramic soup bowl from the
college's renowned pottery program.” Sponsors included the Mud Junkies,
the college's ceramics club, the Art Alliance, PAX-O, the college's
peace studies club, and the Catholic Council. A 4-H group and a Girl
Scout troop also created bowls for the event. The release noted this is
the sixth year Juniata has been involved in Empty Bowls, a nationwide
event designed to focus attention on world hunger.
