Empty Bowl benefits Second Harvest Northern Lakes Food Bank, providing food for more than 4.2 million meals annually to people in need throughout northeastern Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin.
Enjoy a delicious soup meal FREE of charge. Buy beautiful handmade bowls for just $20 each.

South Ridge 9-12 Sculpture and 7th grade Design students are creating bowls to donate to the local Empty Bowl fundraiser for our area Food Shelf. One bowl/student will be given to the fundraiser which in turn will be sold for $20. The money will go into our local food shelf account.

The event is an annual fundraiser. Local chefs donate a variety of soups and bread which people purchase with their choice of bowl. The goal is not only to support the food shelf program, but a way for the local arts communities to give of themselves. Many families are struggling to feed themselves. As a community we want to do what we can to make life a bit better for all.

Open clay studio at South Ridge HS Art studio open Tuesday’s after school, March 22nd and April 5th.

Students will be asking for your support in purchasing student art on cards through  the”Art to Remember” fundraiser. These are high quality printing runs on heavy paper stock. They make excellent gifts. All cards will be available before Winter holiday.
