 The scene at an Empty Bowls Workshop at Creative Arts Group in Sierra Madre in 2012.They've already started making the hundreds of ceramic bowls for this year's Empty Bowls event to serve soup to folks who want to help feed hungry people, then take the bowls they've chosen home. Jeanne and other volunteers are back at Creative Arts Group, 108 N. Baldwin Ave. in Sierra Madre. (To get to the ceramics studio, walk down the driveway and to the right.) Beginners are welcome. They only ask for a suggested donation of $5 to cover kiln costs. Come by one of these Sundays between 4 and 8 p.m.: - June 15, 22 and 29
- July 6, 13 and 20
- August 3 and 10
Jeanne says it best: "The workshops are open to all. Feel free to invite others. Seasoned potters guide beginners. Everyone has a good time. Friendships are formed along with the bowls. $$$ raised for hungry people. I hope you will join us." The seventh annual Empty Bowls fundraiser is set for Saturday, October 11, at Crescenta Valley United Methodist Church in Montrose. |

 Everybody's favorite photo from an Empty Bowls Workshop was taken by Anni in 2012.Only two Empty Bowls Workshops remain this year -- both on Sundays, August 3 and 10, from 4 to 8 p.m. at Creative Arts Group, 108 N. Baldwin in Sierra Madre -- for making the bowls to be offered at this year's Crescenta Valley Empty Bowls event in October. The date of the event is two years ago, but the Crescenta Valley Empty Bowls page on Facebook has photos and posts from workshops earlier this summer: www.facebook.com/cvemptybowls?v=wallAnd here's the Empty Bowls page on the Crescenta Valley United Methodist Church website: www.cvumc.org/#/missions/empty-bowls |

Whaaaaaaaah. This will be my last "official" Running of the Bowls, for this year. I'll try to snag some good snapshots to add here.
