Empty Bowls 2022

4:00 pm - 7:00 pm
October 21

Wesley Hall

Peace House is thrilled to announce that we plan to host our traditional Empty Bowls event live and in person on Friday, October 21 at Wesley Hall. We invite everyone to celebrate Ashland’s continued generosity that helps fill the gaps for those facing the most need for food in the Rogue Valley by joining your friends and neighbors at this fun, family friendly event.

Each year since 2011, around 200 people have purchased tickets to the soup supper, and in so doing receive a beautiful, handcrafted ceramic bowl filled with delicious homemade soup served by elected officials and civic leaders from our community. Soup will be served by Celebrity Servers who endorse the event.

In addition to a hot bowl of soup in a vessel you can take home, we will also offer live music, pottery for sale, and more ways for you to support food security for everyone. Tickets will be available online and at the door.
