The Empty Bowl Project began in 1994 with 400 bowls and has grown in attendance every year. The fundraiser combines the talents and generosity of The Anchorage Clay Arts Guild and some super soups provided by Bean’s Cafe! Thousands of hand-crafted pottery bowls are created for this unique event. With a ticket you can choose a hand crafted bowl to take home, bid on exceptional clay and glass pieces in the silent auction and enjoy soup and cornbread.

A need for bowls:

This event is unique in that we can only sell as many tickets as we have bowls to hand out. If you are interested in donating your ceramic, clay or glass bowls to the event please contact Katherine Jernstrom, Event and Volunteer Coordinator at 297-5612. Thank you!

Thank you to our 2012 Sponsors!
