Welcome to the Web Site of the LARGEST public Empty Bowls event in the United States!

For the 2009 Music Line-Up and Soup List, click here!

Milwaukee Empty Bowls, a nonprofit organization, is committed to raising awareness of the issue of hunger in the Milwaukee community.  This goal is achieved through an annual fundraising event and other initiatives that support local food and hunger programs.

Select from over 2,000 original handcrafted bowls, sample delicious soups and breads from over 50 local chefs while listening to live music. Proceeds from your donation ($20 minimum per bowl including the Grab Bag Express, four bowl limit per person and $10 Kids' Bowls, no limit) will benefit food pantries and meal programs in the greater Milwaukee area. The Grab Bag Express allows you to enter "fast track" line in which you can purchase a bowl, but it has been selected for you. The bowls are to be taken home as a reminder that someone's bowl is always empty.

The 2009 recipients: Bay View Community Center, The Gathering of Southeast WI, Inc., Hope House of Milwaukee, Inc., Repairers of th Breach, St. Ben's Community Meal and St. Catherine Food Pantry. To learn more about these organizations, please click here.
