Empty Bowls Fundraiser
March 13, 2015, 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Empty Bowls has been a fundraiser at Messalonskee High School for several years. The purpose is to raise money for local food pantries. It is also about raising awareness of some of our community members that are struggling to provide food for their families.
Students from Messalonskee High School have been crafting ceramic bowls in pottery class to be sold as part of the dinner. The bowls will be on display for diners to choose and take home after their meal as a reminder of the event and what it represents.
The menu for the evening consists of homemade soups, salad, Panera bread, and desserts. The meal will be served in the Messalonskee High School cafeteria. The cost is $10 for adults and $8 for seniors and students.
Diners can complete the evening by attending Midsummer Night's Dream, being performed by the Messalonskee High School Players in the Performing Arts Center at 7:00. Other performances will be on Thursday, March 12 at 7:00 and Saturday, March 14 at 2:00. Admission to the play is $8 for adults and $5 for seniors and students.
