Janice hard at work during last year's workshops! Greetings, Friends,Bowl season is just around the corner. We have six Sunday afternoons planned for the Summer, beginning on June 25. You can come anytime between 4 and 8 PM to help out. We welcome all levels of experience - from brand new beginners to seasoned masters. Beginners, we will have patient potters present to guide you through the process of forming and decorating the bowls.
For those of you new to the concept of Empty Bowls, it is an annual fundraiser that Crescenta Valley United Methodist Church participates in. We invite the community to help make beautiful ceramic bowls that will be offered at a soup dinner on October 21st. Local chefs and restaurants will be contributing soup, guests will choose a bowl, fill it with soup, and enjoy it in the warm community of neighbors and friends. All of the $20 donations go to support hunger relief organizations.
The workshops take place at the ceramics studio of Creative Arts Group at 108 North Baldwin, in Sierra Madre. They have been very generous in sharing their facility. We ask for a $5 donation if you come to help - it helps to cover their costs of materials and firing. You are welcome to bring friends along. If you need to get in touch with me, you can email me or use my cell# 818 383-3137.
Come, make bowls and make friends. Peace, Jeanne Lavieri

I'm always looking for an excuse to use that photo taken at an Empty Bowls workshop in 2012. After a week off for the holiday, the workshops resume today and continue every Sunday from July 16 through August 6.

Here are some photos from our "finishing touches" on this year's batch of New Empty Bowls. This was on August 6th.
There's still lots to do before our big celebration, on Saturday, October 21st, 2017!
