On Thursday night, March 27th you'll have an opportunity to feed your body and soul at Ellsworth High School and benefit Ellsworth High School's Food Pantry with the Empty Bowls Supper and Jazz Night.

Empty Bowls Supper

This is the 9th year that Mrs. Olson has organized the Empty Bowls Supper.

Guests will be able to enjoy delicious homemade soup, bread/rolls and water.

Admission is $10.00 for students and they get to take home 1 hand throw bowl by Mrs. Olsen and her ceramics/pottery class. Admission for adults is $15.00 and they get to take home 1 hand thrown bowl. A family of 4 can enjoy the soup for $20.00 and receive 2 bowls

Empty Bowls Supper is a community based event that uses art to promote the awareness that there are empty bowls in the world and that no one should go hungry. Businesses and community members are welcome to donate. Contact Leah Olson for more details: lolson@ellsworthschools.org

The Fundraiser traditionally features over 10 homemade soups and handmade bowls. The cafeteria never smells better! The event is organized by Leah Olson, who is the ceramics, jewelry and sculpture aka the 3D Art Teacher at Ellsworth High School. Olson has taught at Ellsworth High School for 11 years.

Help is needed to make this year's event a success. They are looking for crock pots of soup, bread/rolls, butter, bottled water, paper bowls, plastic soup spoons, as well as set-up and clean-up.
