Welcome to our first annual Canton Empty Bowls event!
We are excited to use our skills as clay artists and potters to help alleviate food insecurity in our community. Since many of our members live close to Canton, we're focusing our efforts on this area. Eventually we'd love to support more events in the surrounding North Georgia area.
March 15, 2025
11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
For 2025 all proceeds, 100%, will go to the following three organizations that are impacting our community in a meaningful way.
Please consider donating your time, energy, and money to these worthy charities and join us March 15th for a special event.
