Empty Bowl Supper
The Empty Bowl Supper is an annual event sponsored by the Shenandoah Potters Guild to benefit the Shelter for Abused Women in Winchester. Guild members donate over 300 individually handcrafted, decorated and glazed bowls of various sizes and designs. Ticket purchasers select a bowl of their choice, enjoy a delicious soup oriented dinner using that bowl, and keep the bowl as a reminder of the event.

The Empty Bowl Supper has proven to be a successful fund raiser for the Shelter for Abused Women, as well as a rewarding community project for Guild members.
For ticket prices and further information, call the shelter at 667-6160
